I just remove the old factory bushings from my jetta , and to tell the truth i got even more confused. They are OEM part number 1J0501541E, but they dont quite look like the old ones pictured above, you dont really see any voids from the sides, they look solid from the sides, but when I pressed them out, the voids are there inside and they were oriented horizontally ( 9-3 oclock) position. AS far as I know nobody replaced them in the past, I got the car with 70k mi on it with the documented history of what was ever done to it. BTW, I looked at the cupra bushings I got from IDParts
HERE , I have already contacted them regarding the absence of any lines, was told they were solid, but they are not, there are voids under the plastic caps, and the grease is all dried up there, do you guys know what grease I can use to regrease these?
