    Had this car couple of years with no trouble

    Then one day hit a pot hole hard and cracked an alloy on the front left wheel,every since then i am having awful trouble with the bushes on the wishbone on that side

    I must have changed it about 6 times in the last two years,and few month back put in a new wishbone and the bushes went again only couple days later

    anyone recomend what i should do,done want to get rid of car,Besides that its going great

    Well they are not a great design and are very prone to failure but not that often. They can be very easily damaged if they aren't being fitted correctly too though. Also there is an uprated stronger bush that should be used to replace the originals.
