MOT advisories / suspension bushes

Post by TJC46 » Thu Mar 15, 2018 12:37 pm

As per the title. Mot advisories as follows

MOT from 2016
Advisory notice item(s)
•Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm has slight play in a pin/bush rear bush (2.4.G.2)
•Offside Front Lower Suspension arm has slight play in a pin/bush rear bush (2.4.G.2)

MOT for 2017
Advisory notice item(s)
•slight movement in console bushes

Is this a regular thing on the Z4 ?
Been onto the eurocarparts web site and there are a few bushes to chose from.
Can anyone point me in the right direction from the above MOT info, or is it a bit vague i.e not enough info to pinpoint exactly which bush.
Or should I just renew the lot, again if so which ones.

As common a problem as cracked rear springs. It's your wishbone bushes, known as lollipop bushes
