Hi guys...
Serious issue...
Just turned into driveway and wheel went....
I have noticed the top bolt attaching the wheel to the suspension shaft has gone and the lower bolt isn't held in place by a nut.... wheel is at an angle.
I had work done on my MOT 8 months ago on the following:
1. Front left stabiliser link renewed.
2. Front left suspension strut mount renewed.
3. Front left drive shaft flange oil seal renewed.
Do you guys know if any of this work would have meant that these nuts and bolts that are missing would have been removed?
I cannot see any corrosion that has caused these nuts and bolts to fall out and even if there was....surely that should have been spotted and fixed in the MOT as well.
Nobody else has worked on this area of the car since the MOT 8 months ago.
Surely the MOT centre unscrewed these bolts and didn't screw them up properly again when putting it back together....how else would these bolts just fall out/off. I have not hit anything and even if I did I am not sure what kind of impact I'd have to have for nuts to unscrew themselves.
Photo attached.
Cheers guys.
