Title: MOT Advisory Help - Suspension
Post by: Jons1001 on March 18, 2026, 12:53:23 pm

Hi all,

Had the following advisories

Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i))
Offside Front Lower Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i))

Please can anyone tell me if this is what i need?

Also, will anything else need to be replaced e.g are there any stretch bolts - if so does anyone know which to order?

Cheers

Ask the tester! Could be the console bushes, worth asking.
