Volvobrick Supersonic July 14, 2019 Share July 14, 2019 If steering rack/tie rods are touched, probably will need to. I just did front control arms only, still tracks straight. Will save the money. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwonder 1st Gear July 15, 2019 Share July 15, 2019 Any reasons you think AD's advice cannot trusted ?The encounters so far have not been very good. I bought my car brand new from the AD and I have been to the service centre twice for repairs/replacement. The car is less than one year old. I have not included the first repair as the front door can’t open from the inside after I collected the car on day one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG what happened ? can share ? no obligation Knocking sound when doing low speed u turn and squeeling sound on the steering wheel. Even though the defects surfaced within the same period, had to do it on two separate occasions as they don't have stock to replace the steering column. On the day of replacing the steering column, the service centre said no need to replace but just need to oil some rubber parts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
