These Belgium tests are very intensive! they failed the car on rear left and right suspension joints? they tested it by driving it onto a bed that wriggled the wheels then lifted the car from underneath up and down. Any idea what these parts are? i'm hoping to get my mate to fix it in the UK (hes got a full workshop) and want to do a in out in a day so order the parts in advance. Thanks Graham |

Just been googling - could it be the ball joints? i'm surprised the PPI done less than 3 months ago didnt pick up on this if it is the problem. Would ball joints under the test described above be the culprit and can i check myself before ordering? |

Could be trailing arm bushes or the beam mounts where they attach to the body. Personally I'd stay with standard ones not polybush although Polybush maybe cheaper. |
