If anyone is interested I will put up a longer mail about the 2 yaris' that we own..one at 70,000 miles and one at 36,000 miles . Both need according to the dealer jobs on suspension bushes..the cost for the 70k one is about £800..but i do have a warranty..the best way to do the job is apparently to replace whole upper and lower suspension arm assemblies..I do have faith in the dealer. He tells me that when he was with VW, any rubber based spare was deemed to have a shelf life of 5 years..anyway , the cars have and are good..but the cost of replacing what is in essence a £7 part!!..I was also told that he has a yaris at 8000 miles needing these suspension arm bushes replaced..
so..any views??? al
