Hey guys my car failed it's MOT today on "Rear Bonded suspension unit bonding failed and part of unit is likely to become displaced"

i cant work out what he is on about by that, is it just the top mount ?, he said theres a normal one and an oil filled one. anyone know what they are on about ?

Thanks

Probably the rear beam bushes - but you really need to ask them in case you go down a blind alley.

What was their quote to fix?

If it's only £100 then it's unlikely to be the beam bushes. They're a pig of a job and take time so I would expect much more cost involved.

You really do need to ask them what it is.
