Title: Stabilizer links at the back
Post by: frisby1971 on November 30, 2022, 21:45:38

After the alignment of the car, I was warned for a worn out stabilizer link at the back, right side.

That explains the knocking noise when driving over a little bump.

Does any one of you have experience with DIY exchange the link(s) at the backside?

I can not find any instruction how to, I can not even see where they are.
It supposed to be the vertical , short ones. About 170mm length.

Any suggestion how (easy) to do it?

Thanks for the info ℹ️

Watch this video on YouTube. I think this is a job I need to do quite soon.

I did mine on my i30 estate recently took me about 1 1/2 hrs, it is an easy job to do. Make sure that you have some WD40 handy as the nuts might be a bit rusty, as they are exposed to all the rain and salt from the roads.
