Hi team,
Here is a random issue! I was driving down the motorway a few days ago and noticed at 70mph the car was "wandering", not a great deal but just not holding its position.
I got home and thought that's a wheel bearing! On investigation. I then decided to remove the wheel to check (there was a little rim rock on the NSF wheel). On removal of the wheel the upper LHF Arm assy seemed to have some play and I noticed the grease nipple! (Note: must buy a grease gun!). Decided the upper arm assy was goosed and needed to replace it! New items are £170 odd of the kings pounds (not said that before!). The repair kit for the Arm Assy was only twenty quid so I bought one!
I decided ton look at YouTube to see if there were previous repairs and they are limited!
It seems to remove the Upper Arm Assy, you can remove the subframe! or the front bumper and Nearside Chassis Extension piece, allowing access to the mounting bolt and consequently the removal of the upper pivot pin (for lack of a better discription)
Has anybody done this and any advise?
PS the MOT is due Monday!
Cheers
Dave
