you can get washers and spacers atan ironmongers, if it thought to be required as a support
If it doesn’t move,,, its ok,,, its not you mate,, but you may have to re-evaluate,, pay the dealer
The problem with this is is that you can keep spending on increasing power
Twelve ton is a lot,, you tried it’s ok, just cos it worked for me,, my car is 85,000 miles
With the blow lamp, hammer tapping , jack and job readjustments, and allowing time for heat to transfer,,,
It does work.
One out and new one in ( yes it’s as difficult ) press new one i until it stops, at the shoulder, and it correct measures
Is that not what audi do
Note,,, who would stop pressing a bearing in before it shouldered out,,,,,, and if that is you,, well does this need to be listening to folk who can’t handle a press or want to call people , just because they handled a press.
You don’t go through all this to put proper components out of reach of a sensor
When it shoulders up , the jack goes hard , the job looks straight, you have a brew, no squeals or clicks occur
Job is dun
Refit as per a2oc folk
Wipe sweat off brow and pr
