►The control arms on the Mk7 Golf R are very similar to the pieces on the high-performance Audi TT models. Over time, the control arms will wear, leaving you with a sloppy and vague steering feel. Replace your control arms around the 70-100,000 mile mark to revive the sharp and precise handling found in every Mk7 Golf R.

Within the arms are two rubber bushings and bolted to them is a ball joint. The bushings and joints are all subject to road forces, so they're going to wear down, no matter what. Luckily, the replacement process is very straightforward and shouldn't cause you much trouble to complete.

Watch as FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, Mike Hidalgo, replaces the front control arms and ball joints in a Mk7 VW Golf R.
