Knocking Maser suspension

[sjp63]

Got a knock from the front somewhere, especially on rough roads. jacked up front drivers side and yes the wheel rocks at 12 and 6 oclock, probably upper ball joint. Long trip to the dealer on the cards, 14 months old and 10k miles, otherwise been reliable.

Annoying thing is they've moved the service centre a couple of miles down the road from the sales, so no idle window shopping at service time......

The suspension is more likely to be lower ball joint which only come complete with the lower arm, this is a very common fault on 3200GT's. I would also suggest getting the tracking checked once the new arm is fitted.
