#1 of 3 rear suspension 02 jetta sedan by nissac Sep 25, 2006 (4:35 pm)
I am having problems with the rear suspension on my 02 jetta. 57000 miles and the rear end keeps bottoming out. I have put on new tires all the way around, rear shocks and shock bumpers but no improvement. One shop said the springs were worn, another said the shocks were too stiff and the dealer said it was fine. Has anyone else had this type of problem??

Replying to: nissac (Sep 25, 2006 4:35 pm) I have the same problem with the car bottoming out all the time even on the smallest bump. I have had it back to the dealer many times and they seem not to be concerned but it is annoying, the banging it makes, not wanting anything in the trunk or back seat and it does not seem right. I am bring it to the dealer again today. An independent garage told me that it had something to do with bushing or bearing in the rear axel assemble.

We have a 2006 vw jetta and the front suspension seem to be squeaking right now that its -10c but when it gets down to -35 or colder it banging. Anyone else have this problem.
