Found time with my mechanic to finally replace that subframe. With new bushes. Everything went smoothly.
Now car is not floating anymore on the road. Turn in is crisp and no funny sounds while parking.

is that just an 2nd OEM subframe that you cleaned/repainted and put in new bushings ? Looks

Yea, mine was in bad shape. So i bought another one. Prepared that one in my garage before. Then i had to wait for my mechanic. And we replaced it. Now i have subframe from my car to clean. And sell it. 95% of them are in bad shape. So clean / refurbed / painted one will sell quick. Not that i will make any money on it. It just saves time. While replacing.

are the subframes between sedan and avant interchange-able ? i wonder what mine looks like.

Are the bushings upgraded/different material than OEM ?

Sorry for late reply,

Did not get a email from Audizine :/

No idea about sedan / avant change. Only know that in diesel facelift and preface have different gearbox mounts.

Bushings are upgraded over OEM, But only to "street stiff" They have yellow ones, rede ones and black ones i think. Could be wrong.

C6 with almost 351k on the clock still as my daily. Regular service after 15k

Mann and Mahle Filters, with BG set. One of them is engine flush, another is oil condicioner and last one is into diesel.
Every oil in the car replaced. Engine, differencials front and rear.

Same engine treatment every Year. I know its boring thread but this is reality of C6 Tdi ownership. Oil changes and driving only

Also we cut a whole into skidplate to made oil changes easier.




And some Damage report



Cleaned everything after, and sprayed with some protection. Plans for this year, start to deal with rust on some places. Car has 385 500kms on the clock now.
