Hi all

Had the tracking done today (too many potholes) - guy said rear adjustment point was corroded so hard to adjust. Managed it and it’s all fine now, but what parts is he talking about that might be corroded? Keen to replace them if possible.

There is an adjustable bush, the bolt goes through the bush but off set from the centre and you turn the sleeve it sit in, this could be what he means, lower outboard wishbone bush.

I replaced the control arm with adjustable control arms and a non adjustable bush

Something like this? https://www.powerflexsuspensionbushes.co.uk/for-bmw-z4-e85--e86-powerflex-heritage-adjustable-rear-lower-control-arm-kit-pfr5-4615gh-114120-p.asp
 
Exactly that

But the picture is miss leading as there is only one arm in the box. So you need 2 and if I remember correctly you also need the bushes for each end.

Might have remembered that wrong think there is 2 arms it is the bushes you need as well as.

Best to check if ordering some
