It's a life saver at the moment with the S out of action.

I got under the car, replaced the sway bar mount bushes and problem fixed. Total cost: $24 and my resolve not to work on this car.

Moral is, Pedder's suck huge donkey balls.
Be interesting to take it back and have another check and see what they find wrong this time I have always found Pedders round near me fine but I would think it all comes down to each individual franchise.

Don't think I'll be going back anytime soon.

I'm planning a bit of a drive soon so think I'll get it serviced by Ford and see what they come back with. I'll be interested to hear their take on the various seals and bushes.
