2nd MoT passed but.... - Page 2

Those C Links are the ARB link joints or something similar and are a usual wear and tear item. 150 seems a decent price for swapping two as well,especially at a stealers.

The C-Links are bolted to the end of the ARB and therefore are part of the system, but they are not ARB bushes. Might be best to speak to the MOT tester to establish exactly what the advisory was for as there seems to be a lot of confusion

That's what I was thinking.

I'll see if I can talk to the MoT guy.

Anyway the car is back to being smooth and feels taut over bad surfaces again, it really slammed and banged about over drains before.

I still think they should have been changed out at MoT time but I was covered by their MoT guarantee

"if it fails next test we will fix it up to £750"

Maybe they erred to save themselves some money!

I got that deal after the first test last year and again this time.

I'm not bolshie enough with them.....
