#1: Rear Wheel dodgy movement when driving Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Sun Mar 08, 2015 12:58 pm ---- Gah a problem I need early advice with guys!
So when I drive, the driver side rear wheel moves sideways like it wants to fall off.
I have jacked the car up and tried moving the wheel with my hands in every direction but it seems very stable.
Any idea on what I should try next or what the issue could be?
Ive been told it looks quite severe when driving!
HELP!

(Cant believe ive been driving like this for months unknowingly - I assumed the noise was my exhaust dangling :/)

If you want it to be worse afterwards .. feel free! Take it to a PROPER garage, not a bunch of tyre fitters ...

So ive been told some kind of bearing around the torsion bar (?) has gone and it needs like a new one?
How does that sound? Plausible?
Or is this the radius arm bearings I mean? It cant be the actual torsion bar I guess?
Its really the little parts in this pic??
#10: Re: Rear Wheel dodgy movement when driving Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Mon Mar 09, 2015 2:25 pm ---- Number 4 and 5 which are the radius arm bearings
Dont forget the anti roll bar seal if you rebuilding it yourself
