Trailing arm bushes

Hi

My V40 has failed it's MOT on what the mechanic has called trailing arm bushes. Are these known by any other name, and how easy are they to replace.

Cheers

That would be "trailing arm bushings" outside the UK. Replacing them may require a special tool, or reasonable facsimile thereof, to press the rubber bushings in and out of the trailing arm ends.
