034 Motorsport Australia - RS+ Adjustable Solid Rear Sway Bar (MQB) (AWD) - 034-402-1038.
034Motorsport's RS+ Adjustable MQB Solid Rear Sway Bar Upgrade for the Audi 8V/8Y A3/S3, F3 Q3, 8S TT/TTS Quattro, and Volkswagen MK7/7.5 Golf R, Sportwagen, and Alltrack is engineered to improve the handling dynamics and balance of these MQB AWD vehicles.
Designed to be a bolt-in replacement for the hollow factory rear sway bar, this upgrade will drastically reduce body roll and understeer without sacrificing ride quality. Manufactured from a single piece of solid spring steel, this bar is over 171% stiffer than the factory unit, resulting in a much more balanced and agile car, which corners flatter and can be coaxed into oversteer as desired when driving through curves on the street or track. Compared to our standard Solid Rear Sway Bar Upgrade, this sway bar provides further improved handling & reduced understeer, providing a more playful handling experience.
This Sway Bar also utilizes greaseless Teflon-lined bushings for a service-free and silent driving experience!
Please Note:Ā For lowered vehicles, always check all clearances over the full articulation of the suspension in order to identify possible interference. We recommend running 034Motorsport suspension components, as they have been designed and tested to work together, without interference.

For those looking for the absolute most rear end rotation, the factory front sway bar should be retained.
034Motorsport Sway Bar Kits feature maintenance-free polyurethane bushings with a Teflon and polyester liner designed to enhance sway bar response speed while minimizing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). This liner also results in an extended service life that allows these bushings to even outlast your vehicle. With no need for additional lubrication, these bushings offer reliable, long-lasting performance without the hassle of regular maintenance and greasing. Built to withstand extreme conditions, the bushings are hydrophobic, heat-resistant up to 500°F, and resistant to water and common automotive chemicals. These bushings are covered by a limited lifetime warranty which covers material cracking, separation of the Teflon liner and polyurethane bushing, or squeaking under normal street or track conditions.
