I've got some brand new ones for sale if you want them... I went down the cupra route as my bushes were completely goosed!

Let me know...

The Cupra ones are a bit stiffer.

Do a search there's info on here.

using the keyword 'udders' might help!

Yes, they're the Powerrflex ones - they're the front wishbone ones.

what so u just bought the cupra bushes? are there any differenses between the tdi sport and the cupra bushes?

the cupra ones are solid, rock solid :clap: and they are only £7 :D
the tdi sport ones are soft, really soft and have holes in them big enough to get 2 fingers in! :ban:

if you jack up the front on axle stands both sides, put your fingers into the bushes, you can actually pull the wishbone out of alignment!

whoever at SEAT thought this was a good idea needs to find a new career! :redcard:

the udders just fit around the soft foam standard bushes.
they will reduce the movement of the wishbone and in time you will only end up replacing both the udders and standard bushes anyway!

I agree completely!

However to replace the bushes ain't exactly easy and these Powerfles just slot in.

It really depends on the state of your bushes to begin with!

As far as a price goes...

These are the powerflex units if that is the way you want to go.

I would suggest going for the Cupra bushes as a longer term fix.
