My RRS has now covered 115,000km and when transiting undulations on good roads I have a rattle coming from the suspension. There is no clunking and on rough roads all is good. My research indicates this is more a suspension ball joint rather than the bushes in the suspension arms but given the km I guess I will just do the lot at the same time.

However I also get this "rattle" from the rear suspension. How common are the issues that afflict the front suspension also happening with the rear suspension and is doing the rear suspension arms etc basically the same as the fronts.

Without hearing the rattle I would still lean towards the sway bar bushes, they're a bit of a weakness on these cars.

With hearing it in the front and the rear I would buy bushes for the rear (£15/£20 a side), easy to change and you will get your answer. The front bushes are a garage/indie job unless you've got an afternoon to waste

Thanks - I will have a look at them as a start.

Cheers
