GTi6 Track Rod change; question

[ginge191]

take it to a proper garage, by the sound of it I wouldn't even trust that place to fit a wheel properly!

The track rods are identical left to right, just a different boot on the left which pushes on, has a bonded metal ring inside it hence no clip.

you don't touch the inner boot.

So in theory; if you disconnected the TRE from the hub and just twist, they'll unscrew as normal?

Yeh im a little pissed off to be fair; they were all confident in sorting them, but didn't persist at all.
