Have just been looking through my car file, and realise that I have an advisory note from the last MOT (Feb 2009) that the "Offside top suspension joint bushes are deteriorating".
What effect would this have on the handling of the car, is this something I should get done asap?

These bushes are very important for general handling - and the good news is - they are very easily replaced! This is the one area on the car where you really MUST fit polyurethane bushes - will make the handling/steering much more responsive. So - yes - do it right away!

This is also on my to do list. Been on about it for weeks just not got around to it. Suppose now I'm keeping the car I better do them
Where did you order your bushes from?

Easy fit - doesn't take long.
