Not sure if that was because they were bad quality or maybe the mechanic didn't set the arms in the correct angles before tightening the bolts, thus twisting them up when the car is lowered to the ground.

Never knowing whether they follow the ELSA is why I do it myself now, but at £200 a pop, who cares. I would have payed someone £150 to remove my bloddy pinch bolt!

That is exactly my story, lasted a year and after 18months they were shot to bits.
When taking wheels off yesterday for refurb at the garage, while wheels off you could grab them with one hand and twist !!!!!!!!!!!! And the noise they make is ridiculous.

Where do I w find the info about correct procedure???
Is it just one page, or several. If only one or two could someone post a snapshot here please
