Hi every body, I have 2013 Panda 4x4 with 22,000 miles she (KZY) was bought with 10,000 miles in 2015, apart from random EML when the lights are on. Turned out to be poor connection in near side numberplate light.
I have over the years done assorts from building engines, vehicle manufacture and lately audit/fault finding and rectification on new Range Rovers.
Anyway back to KZY she had some advisories this year, rear shock misting, spindle/bush play on control arm. Also doing discs and pads on the rear.
I had a look at Autofix manual and aside from very few in-depth procedures it seems most of the bolts are sacrificial, so where do you guys get bolts please? Local Fiat Dealer want nearly £20 for the control arm pinch bolts then another £16 for the front control arm bolts. According to Autofix all the front subframe bolts are sacrificial. This is going to cost a fortune.
