    Can anyone tell me the typical cost to replace the front suspension ball joint and then to get a tracking done? I've a 2001 Seat Ibiza. Failed the NCT.

    Thanks.

    I'm presuming you mean the bottom ball joint, off the top of my head I'd say approx €20 for the part and no more than 1 hours labour to fit.

    Yeah I thinks thats what it is..all it says on the NCT sheet is front suspension - ball joints worn.

    Thanks.

    What kind of symptoms if any did you have to know that they were worn?

    Inside of your tyres might give an insight to how worn they are

    proper job would probably be around €100-150 that price including the part/fitting/tracking
