Powerflex bushes fitted

Many thanks to Cyrus - all sorted now (Sal, can you ring me to sort payment etc!?!)

Only did the upper (or rear) TCA bushes - the ones that I've been advised to not even attempt myself! Doh!

Got hold of a hydraulic puller and the bush came out DEAD easy.

I reckon it took me around 1hr 15 minutes to do the second one.

Got rid of my clunking and the steering has a more solid, weighty feel to it. Not driven quickly yet, so no further feedback at the moment.

Hi,

I've ordered the 'Full Set' from Sal today.

Am going to get my BMW Dealer to do the work - don't mind a bit of D.I.Y. - but this is not really my bag and I don't fancy this job, to be honest.

Will report back on the changes and feel of the car when the work is done - I've heard good things about this kit.
