    Hi All,
    2004 berlingo failed the test on right hand rear only,
    its seems the opposite side is ok
    The R/H wheel is bowed.

    Some people as saying to change the axle while others say that since its only on the one side you can get a kit and just do that side which would work out cheaper.

    What You's think

    don't know if you got this sorted or not but we had the same problem with our 206 a while back. We changed the axle. Think it cost about 250ish fitted (mates rates). The repair kit is about 120 but its the labour involved in fitting it that brings the cost up as the axle has to be stripped, torsion bars removed and re fitted and these can be pigs to get out. We had the axle swapped over and the van back on the ground in about 40 mins

    You'll not know how bad it is until you dismantle the whole axle, if the bearings are really bad the trailing arm shafts get badly worn. Also you would be safer doing both sides if you do refurb it.
    axle's are cheap enough for these compared to refurbing one, up to yourself really.
