Hello,
It's probably time to bring this thread back up again.
I just bought my 2002 EVC recently and installed new Bilstien shocks
on all four corners. (Beautiful ride, by the way!) (I'll post a more
thorough message on this later)
Of course, I remembered that folks were losing rear torsion bars all
the time, so I checked the security of mine. Good thing too! ALL
fasteners were loose and two bolts were nearly ready to fall out.
And, this EVC was maintained *religiously* by a VW Stealership.
(Boneheads!)
I pulled all fasteners, cleaned them up, applied "Lock Tite" and
cranked down again. That's a solid fix now.
Let this be another "wake up call" for those with rear torsion bars.
(2001-2003, I believe) Anyone can do this. Just slide under your
EV/EVC and check it out for yourself!
Best wishes to ALL,
Garrett
