The alignment is costly
Definitely go for both sides at the same time - maybe look at the rear control arm bushes and top mounts at the same time.

Hi, why would you recommend the rear control arm bushes/top mounts? If you havent noticed already im pretty clueless when it comes to mechanics. Doesn't help that every suspension part seems to have 3 different names!
If anyone can point me in the direction of an idiots guide to understand the suspension on these cars i would be grateful as id like to refresh where possible and save money on labour along the way.

Sorry - just suggesting to get those items checked - they are the usual wear points - but you have already had a mechanical review...so ignore my suggestion
