Racingline MQB Subframe Alignment Kit
The Racingline MQB Subframe Bolt Collar Alignment Kit is an essential “why not” upgrade designed to eliminate the challenges caused by the factory’s large tolerances in the subframe mounts. This affordable yet highly effective kit will pay for itself by ensuring precise handling and steering, and by saving you time and money on future alignments.
The Problem with the Factory Design
The original subframe design on MQB vehicles uses oversized bolt holes, providing a wide range of adjustment for dealers and repairers to align the assembly. While this offers flexibility, it also means there is significant opportunity for inaccuracy every time your subframes are refitted. This can lead to a less precise steering feel, and with hard driving, the car’s alignment can even creep out of tolerance over time.
The Racingline Solution
The Racingline kit is a complete set of 16 precision-engineered, push-in bolt collars. These collars are designed to perfectly centralize the subframe by cutting out the huge factory tolerances, ensuring the bolt locations are perfectly centered every time you refit.
The result is a more precise and confident driving experience. You’ll notice sharper handling and braking responses, as the subframe is no longer allowed to shift and flex under load. This comes with no additional noise, vibration, or harshness (NVH) transferred into the cabin.
Key Features:
- Perfect Alignment: Eliminates factory tolerances for consistent, repeatable alignment.
- Full Kit: Includes 16 bolt collars for both front and rear subframes.
- Premium Construction: Made from high-quality T6061 billet aluminium and finished with a durable gloss black anodized coating.
- Simple Installation: A quick push-in fitment that requires no modification to the subframe or car body.
- Cost-Effective: By ensuring complete accuracy, this kit can save you the time and cost of needing alignments every time you reframes are removed.
Note: Installation is straightforward and can be completed in approximately one hour. We recommend replacing the original subframe bolts with new ones, as they are a one-time-use “stretch” bolt. It is also critical to perform a full wheel/geometry alignment by a professional after fitment.
