Good stuff. Did you have any judder under braking before you replaced the control arms? I’ve replaced all discs and pads now, front discs twice and I’m getting judder under braking. It’s doing my nut in. Wondering if that can be attributed to the control arms, given my discs and pads are new.

No juddering since I replaced the discs and pads.

Its usually the bottom arms that cause that. Please replace with genuine ones, lemforder or meyle etc. Learnt that on an a4 b6, cheap ones didn't last 12 months!
