MOT failure
Posted: Wed Nov 19, 2014 1:02 pm
Cars failed on o/s droplink and o/s wishbone front bush . Parts are cheap enough but whats the best way to tackle the front bush?
Plus ,when the rear bushes were changed 2 year ago we were warned that the wishbone to subframe lower mount bolt was about shot ,so chances are the threads in the mount have stripped ,possibly need a new lower mount .£56 from ECP but no bolt provided .
If thats the case then access to the tie rod will be greatly improved ,so may as well change it even though once again it wasn,t given an advisory .
