I have just been trying to find a creak in the front suspension of my beetle and i discovered that front struts are stuffed.
Does anyone have any suggestions for redily available replacements?

Cheers
Mike

Try spraying WD40/silicon over the spring

Is there oil over the insert/strut

ie is it leaking

they are the 3 bolt ones.
theres no oil in the strut and the shaft is rubbing on the housing
