CTS TURBO Subframe Bushings MQB AWD

The CTS Turbo rear subframe bushing kit is designed to improve rear suspension and differential response in MQB platform cars with Haldex AWD.

The factory rubber subframe bushings allow unwanted movement during dynamic driving, which can make the rear end unstable and "soft" when driving at the limit. This kit is designed to fill the voids in the OEM bushings, limiting vertical movement and stabilizing the subframe.

The result is:

• Improved rear suspension geometry retention

• More stable cornering behavior

• More precise vehicle response

• Better driver-to-road connection

Can be used in conjunction with CTS-HW-216 for a complete rear subframe upgrade on AWD models.

Installation and torque specifications:

CTS Turbo highly recommends replacing the factory torque-to-yield bolts during installation.

• New subframe bolt: 70 Nm + 180°

• Used subframe bolt: 90 Nm + blue thread lock
