Title: Thanks once again to Daz
Post by: VXL V6 on 19 October 2013, 16:02:32: This time rear donut bushes on the 2.6. Amazingly the originals weren't too bad and looking at the date stamp would appear to be GM originals from when the car was built.

As always, a top job done by Daz :y :y

Post by: VXL V6 on 19 October 2013, 16:51:34: Tightens up the rear chassis. Got them done on this car as it's coming up to MOT time and wanted to cover a known failure point (The ones that came out of my old DTi fell too pieces when they were being removed :o

Just got to get the headlight aim right now and hopefully it'll go through cleanly :)

Post by: amba on 19 October 2013, 16:51:46: Changed mine on 2003.3.2 a few weeks ago as reading through previous old Mots, they had reaised an advisory several times. ::)

When removed they were originals from manufacture and only the outer metal lip was rusted.Rubber bush was intact with no splits or seperation from center core,so what looks bad on the outside doesn,t always follow they are worn out.

Post by: jonny2112 on 19 October 2013, 21:45:37: MOT'd mine last month - straight through, and we don't have advisories.
Worth a thought though if it makes a difference. At the same time, if it's not broke ....... ???

Post by: TheBoy on 20 October 2013, 09:53:52: Gixer changed both my cars to polys. It tightened up TBE's arse nicely. The bullet had had recent Lemforders fitted a year or so before, but was still noticibly tighter.
