MOT Fail - OS rear Bonded Suspension unit

[maclements]

As title says, my car failed it's MOT on an 'Offside rear bonded suspension unit bonding failed and part of unit is likely to become displaced [2.4.F.2]'

The mechanic showed me and I understand what he was saying, but does anybody know how much this would cost to fix? He said it's a specialist part and that they can't really justify doing it in their garage.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Rear axle bush? If it is not really specialist and they are about 30£ a side and both should be replaced imo.

Is that what they mean, the bush?

 

[JackJack]

I think that is what they mean. What bit did they show you?

I know this is probably the worst response ever, but if I remember, it looked like one of these! I think it was the one I've circled on the right?

The platform the spring sits on ?? Can't see how that has come away ?

Sorry, my bad, the one on the left. Its difficult for me to familiarize myself with the axle when it's hanging down like that, if i was under the car I could point it out straight away. It's where I've circled left I believe.
