    Default Common Vr Problems

    okay sorry if this is in the wrong section

    couple months ago i brought a vr and have noticed a few problems that seem to be common in vr vs etc

    so far the air conditoning doesnt work, hopefully just needs a re gas

    and the sway bar links are rooted, there getting replaced very soon and also need to replace the control arm bushes

    is there any other problems i should look out for?

    Usually the front bushes wearout quicker than the rear so I would check the front bushes also,make sure you put on poly performance bushes they last forever
