Westfield, 182, 200
My 182 is due for an MOT in a month, so I thought I'd have a check as it was my wife's old car!
Found leaky rear shock and play in the off side wheel bearing, no problem, new genuine parts ordered for both sides £200 inc new hub nuts!
Checked the front and there is a tiny bit of play both sides on the steering (rocking the front wheels at 3 and 9 O'clock). Rocking the steering wheel I can feel no play or clicking, also can't find any play in the track rod ends (although it's tough without a second pair of hands!). So, is it likely to be the inner joints? or is there somewhere on the rack that wears as both sides of the car feel about the same-is it normal for both to wear at the same time?
Cheers, Ian.
