    Hi All,

    Just had my free MOT and as a bonus a free brake fluid change as I was slightly overcharged at my last service owing to fat fingers on the Multitronic oil qty used.

    Passed fine, but a few advisories.....

    It says "Front C-Links Worn" on the dealer sheet, but the MOT advisory is "Nearside (and offside) front anti-roll bar linkage rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive play"

    I assume they are the same thing? If so, any idea how long they take to decay to fail? Anyone got any chestnuts on replacing them - easy DIY or specialist job - and any ballpark costs?

    1.9 TDi Avant Sport...2004.

    Cheers,
    Dan.

    -up your handling.
