Righty - in the ongoing drama of should I sell my Cinq as it needs a few things doing vs shall I trade it in for a Seicento I need to find out something.
The rot can be welded up by my dad so that's no problem but the rear knocking noise is my main concern. My dad hasn't got the time to sort it out so luckily I've found a bloke who's handy with the spanners and will only charge me some beer money for him to do the job.
The question is will I get away with just replacing the bushes at a cost of £8 each so £32 for the four?
The garage my dad took the car to wanted to change the whole suspension arm but where they just trying to earn a few extra quid by making it out to be a bigger job than it actually is?
I don't want to buy the bushes and pay this bloke to fit them if the knocking noise is still going to be there.
By the way, the noise definitely isn't a loose exhaust or the spare wheel or anything else like that - even the garage said it was the bushes.
