IMPORTANT! If you feel knocks under your feet, then it is most likely due to a lower rear arm. This is the second most common cause of knocking on small bumps on the road. I show the diagnostic method here: • Knocking on bumps? Sim...

Such a defect of support on the B5 is almost impossible to diagnose in garage conditions without removing the strut, since it will not be possible to imitate the sharp compression of the spring, especially if it is reinforced, like mine. In older cars with a through shock absorber tower, it was much easier. Therefore, it is the last place where the cause of knocking is being sought, and before that they manage to replace all kinds of levers, bushings, pillows, tie-rod ends, etc.
In fact, it’s very easy to remove a strut of this design. To do this, disconnect the two upper levers from the steering knuckle and one (any) stabilizer link bolt. That's all! YOU DO NOT NEED to take out a tie-rod end and the lower arms to do it. I clearly show this in the next video ( • Снятие и разборка стой... )
After a while, a similar knock (less often and quieter), appeared in the left strut. When disassembling, the pillow turned out to be intact, but due to the absence of the washer, a backlash of the nut appeared on the shock absorber rod ( • Почему может стучать ш... )
