....and she failed.....
Front passenger side wheel bearing apparantly - guys at Sportomotive could only just hear it and were suprised it was failed for it....
They also told me that they have noticed some play in the rear wishbone and think the Bush may be on its way out - they also said that this is the first time they have seen this??
Anyone got any recommendations for replacement Bushes, or is it just best to go with the Lotus part (ie, not powerflex or anything) and is it worth getting them all done at once?

bearing must be well gone for an MOT tester to spot it?Front passenger side wheel bearing apparantly - guys at Sportomotive could only just hear it and were suprised it was failed for it....

when you get the bearing changed, (have them) make sure the drive flange is 100%, otherwise you will only have to do the job again...
bushed wise, unless you have a reason to change, use OEM ones, although I strongly suggest you change all of them at the same time (or at least all the ones on that end of the car)
That's what's annoying scuffers - the guys at Sportomotive said that they could only just hear the bearing grinding, ah well - they are sorting out out now anyway - will ask about the drive flange as well
Figured I should change all the bushes at once - will look into getting them done soon as well - plus a full Geo as well I guess
