Are all dealerships likely to have the same Technical information to resolve a problem?.

After two sets of arb bushes to cure a front end knock my car has to go back into the workshop again, Ive read most of the posts on this subject but wonder if there is a fix available that my dealership doesn't know about, or what's the current situation regarding this problem, is it fixable?, thanks.

Thanks....for keeping calm and not shouting at me.
So they just keep fitting arb bushes to quieten it down for a few months?.

Not aimed at you Scott, historically it has been my favourite subject (cough) and have suffered with this design FU, I mean characteristic for 4 years now

I tend to get the fixes well in advance, also have even had the dealer knock up fixes for me, jees its not through lack of trying..........but unfortunately for me, they have ALL failed.

It is not a global failure by any means, some on here seem to be cured or at least for the time being at least

What I would say is that the bushes are a red herring and although they will quieten it down for maybe a few thousand miles, it is by no way a cure. The problem is never likely to be fully fixed as I believe that there has been a serious miscalc at LR or third party design that renders any attempt at a fix, useless.

Sport wise, we will have to wait for the 2014 replacement to rid ourselves of this one forever and that BTW involves shelling out another £65k+..............something I hasten to add WON'T be doing........I will be in my nice new FFRR L405
