United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Zermatt Silver
Replacing lower control arms and bushes

Hi All,

My 2012 RRS 5.0 S/C at 75k miles has developed a vague feeling in the steering and a slight shake under braking. The last MOT reported wear in the ball joints but, not bad enough to fail. Anyone else had this? Am I right in thinking it’s the lower control arms that should be replaced with associated bushes? What sort of cost do you think I’m looking at? I think my local inde charges £144 per hour.

One other thing, what do you think about using Britpart? They have OEM and non-OEM at half the price. Cheers,

Stuart.
