It is expensive but par for the course.
The 4 arms can be rather time consuming (it can go well or be seized and difficult to seperate) so probably has a fair bit of labour to make sure they don't lose out.. |

There is no upper wishbone.
I did all 8 arms on my D2 on the drive with a trolly jack and basic tools for under £150

Thanks all,
Picked her back up this morning and everything seems a lot quieter, smoother and tighter.

Deep breathe. 2k. Tell you what though, small price to pay for the reliance and strain I place on this wonderful car.
Just watched a Chris Harris YouTube review of the BMW 320d. He reckons it's all the car anyone would ever need, he may well be right but getting in my S8 after a 7 day separation and driving 150 miles was heart-warming bliss!
