bush??

Featured Replies

Ok the Mot is at 1 today all booked in, Took it to a local tyre fitters to get the tracking checked as it pulls slightly to the left and to steer straight you kinda gotta have the wheel turned a little more to the right rather than central so i guessed it would be the tracking, The guy then said that there's a little movement on the front pass wheel and the tracking is ok its down to a bush? Which bush would this be? is this what the creaking be when im driving slow and turning (parking). Can i get uprated parts for this eg Cupra bushes? if it is these bushes that's gone?

Any thoughts/suggestions

Could be console or wishbone bushes

Mine had similar symptons and turned out to be a completely ruined console bush

Both can be uprated - console bushes to the SEAT Cupra ones and wishbone bushes to powerflex polyprop ones

parts are cheap - £15 ish for the cupras and £40 ish for Powerflex - but changing is labour intensive

I don't know how much wear (if any) to the bushes you can get away with on your MoT, but either way, you won't get them replaced in the next 45 minutes...

The good news is that it passed, advisory that there's play on the front left wheel and the rear bushes are shot. I'll order the parts and take a look in the week. Thanks
