Sun was out so my Chim decides to let me down again.

Last weekend the 100A fuse failed.

Today I noticed a squeak and clonk on bends. Went home slowly and found the drivers side rear anti-roll bar mount broken in the middle. It appears to have corroded away.

Anyone else had this?

Brian, not had a lot of luck lately have you?

Had a ferret round the front under mine at the MOT a few weeks ago and sound as a pound down there luckily.

Not so lucky with the splitter which I removed going INTO the MOT station.
