no. The inserts are for Bonny, found out she got an advisory for some suspension bushes. So might as well powerflex it & fit those as well

Anyway, back to topic with a question....

What is the noise like with these fitted? Increase? extra vibration? Any good for an everyday car?

[stephenevans99]

You report no real difference. I would guess its because your bushes were not that worn??? Mine i think were knackered and soft. 179k miles , hence why i have noticed huge differences. I dont know, just a thought.

I think you're absolutely right - there didn't appear anything wrong with my subframe bushes so perhaps the inserts didn't make that instant, noticeable difference. Perhaps also being a diesel mask the benefits.

Even fitted to a D5, there's no extra noise or vibration worth noting....for just a little over £20, it's gotta be worth doing.

For me there is no extra normal noise, i didnt notice any vibrations. But when i accelerated it felt more tort through the steering wheel and slightly different. Difficult to explain to be honest. But the biggest difference is all the Horrible loud clucking has gone. It sounded like metal on metal before..... it was starting to worry me. Now i feel confident in the car and accelerating out of a corner on uneven ground is pleasant now as i dont felt like the wheels are going to fall off.

Cool, cheers guys

They make a BIG difference to the feel of the front end. I noticed a little more vibration, put top
and bottom engine mounts on mine are poly bushed.

Im Still loving the new inserts. Went for an agressive drive today and it was Superb.

My R had an advisory on subframe bushes, so I'm interested in a set as well.
