Y plate Toledo Rear Bushings * now including part number and tutorial

Hi all,

Wondering if some kind sole can help.

My beloved Toledo has just failed its MOT on account of Excessive play in a pin/bush of both nearside and offside sub-frame.

Does anyone know the part number required for replacement bushings to amend this issue?

Kind Regards,

Darren

Thanks buddy, Although that wasn't the page i can see every part for my entire car is on there. What a great find. Thank you so much (was really at a loss as Haynes don't do a Toledo/Leon manual.

I ordered the rear bushings, turns out they're the same as on an Audi A3.

Now i have them i can see that the rubber bit looks the same, but on my expired ones on the car it seams as if there's a large rubber washer on the side thats pointing towards the centre of the car it looks like rusty metal but feels like rubber, which is strange as new ones don't have anything like this, nor does it show it on the rear bushings image:

Strange, oh well i guess dad will see when he takes the thing apart.

Also found a handy tutorial for replacing the same part on a VW in case anyone runs a search for this similar procedure here:

The part number you'll need is: 1J0501541C and is appro £15 plus VAT each.

Hope that helps any future peeps....
