Hi Monthagny, thanks again for the input. A friend has advised changing the top mountings but it would be worth getting it up in the air and getting to the bottom of the problem. I suspect it is worn shocks or top mountings as you said. If i keep the standard set up do you think some good quality lowering springs would help? Nothing too drastic, say 20mm or so. Even if i sort the bouncy ride out it sits very high and body roll is also an issue. Thanks again.

Without getting too technical coilovers do not allow you to control the bump/rebound so when you hit a bump the rebound is too hard and you get the bounce from the frequency of the tyre squash.Before doing anything get a specialist to get to the bottom of your suspension troubles. With very very slight additions a VR6 golf is fantastic, better than most hot hatches produced today. For a VR6 to 'bounce' something is very wrong. If your top mounts are worn you may get strange results.

Conti>>> Saying that mind you could be right, maybe the shocks are indeed worn and need replacing. It would probably be a good idea to get the shocks replaced along with some new springs, maybe some slightly lower and stiffer ones and maybe some anti-roll bar bushes as well. What do you thik?

I've used adjustable coilovers on 2 of my mark 2 golfs and they were fine for road use providing you weren't looking for a really smooth ride. It's always a compramise when you're upgrading for performance purposes so it depends a lot on what you want from the car. Like you said, i suspected worn shocks as the culprit for my problems and took it to VW where my mate works and he said they are fine and that they are all like that. I only use it as a second car but i am a little disapointed.
