MQB Front Subframe Locking Collar Upgrade Kit

The 034 Motorsport MQB Front Subframe Locking Collar Upgrade Kit is designed to precisely center the subframe on MQB platform Audi vehicles, specifically the 8V/8V.5 Audi A3/S3/RS3 and 8S Audi TT/TTS/TTRS models. This upgrade kit directly addresses the common issue of subframe clunking, popping, or creaking that can manifest during slow turns, entering driveways, or when starting from a standstill. By precisely locating the subframe, this kit eliminates unwanted shifting and provides a permanent solution to a fundamental design flaw. This ensures the subframe and bolts are perfectly located, facilitating a hassle-free installation. The kit also includes new factory-correct subframe bolts to prevent thread stripping. Unlike kits made from softer materials, the use of stainless steel in this kit prevents deformation and guarantees a lifetime of performance. Installation of this kit is straightforward and can typically be completed in approximately one hour. No permanent modifications to the subframe are necessary, and the upgrade is fully reversible. The kit includes eight precision-machined stainless steel subframe locating collars (four upper and four lower), four subframe bracket spacing washers, and four factory replacement subframe bolts.
