Rear suspension "jumping"

Postby V12Graham » Sat Dec 13, 2008 8:08 pm

Recently got my hands on a S3 2+2 as my next project, the car drives ok but although on the road is in need of a bit of tlc.
My question is when I reverse up my drive which is on an upward slope I get a feeling as if the back axle is jumping, any suggestions where to look for the problem?

Check the 4 axle mounts, I had this and the rear 2 had parted company

Check rear cage mounts and radius arm bushes front and rear.
If it happens when you reverse you should find it happens when you first move forward after reversing.
