To replace the silent block of the Volkswagen Golf, first loosen the screws securing the wheel to the hub, completely removing it to access its components at the rear. By rotating the hub, locate the wishbone, which must be removed from its seat by unscrewing the corresponding fixing screws. Once this is removed, the silent block incorporated within it can be taken out and replaced with a new spare part; after replacement, remount the wishbone.
