Or perhaps try Quantum Platinum 5W40 from your local TPS (Assuming they're prepared to play ball)? It's actually cheaper than most other oil at around £12.70p for 5l, it's fully synthetic and has the nod of approval from VW

Drain out the factory spec green power steering fluid and replace it with the red equivalent.

Thanks guys! All done for now and problem solved. Replaced the top mount bushes and bearings with powerflex blacks, wishbone rear bushes with psb's, swapped the ball joints over and replaced a boot, replaced a track rod end and adjusted camber and tracking. (Not mentioning ****ing around with replacing a wheel bearing badly and ending up having to replace the nuckle and hub) In short: worn top mount bushes and bearings along with wishbone rear bush and wrong way round lower ball joints for my fourteens, compounded by tracking and camber adjustments causing a lot of dodginess. Thanks, rich and lr5v for your excellent advise, and mk2 for his very direct post on sdi camber! Next time I'll make my own thread rather than hijacking someone else's! Joshhert
