Description
The CTS MQB AWD Rear Subframe Mount Insert Kit is designed to enhance the responsiveness of the rear suspension and differential for the MQB Platform. MQB Audi/Volkswagens, equipped with Haldex AWD, utilize rear subframe mounts made of rubber that can cause the rear end to feel sloppy under high-performance driving conditions. This kit is engineered to fill the voids in the factory mounts, limiting vertical movement, and maintaining the rear suspension geometry for better cornering and a more responsive driving experience.
For a complete rear subframe upgrade, consider pairing with CTS-HW-216 for AWD models. When installing these inserts, we highly recommend replacing the factory torque-to-yield bolts. Torque new subframe bolts to 70 Nm + 180°. Torque used subframe bolts to 90 Nm with blue thread lock.
