Why run one, in fact you might as well remove the dampers too....... :roll:
FIT A NEW ONE THEY ARE NOT EXPENSIVE -I suspect you'll invalidate your insurance running as you are (with no damper) :shock:

The damper stabilises the steering system and prevents shimmy when going over bumps.

Contrary to the beliefs of some, VW were/are in the business of making money and did not fit parts for the fun of it or to get rid of unwanted stockpiles of components :lol:
