Hi,
Does anyone know how much of a job replacing the anti roll bar links is?
I've been advised they need doing and i was aware of a slight knock on the back end anyway. Need to decide whether to have a go myself or get the garage to do them whist its there for a service today.
Cheers

Re: Rear Anti Roll Bar Links
The drop links aren't difficult to do. Soak everything in a good releasing agent prior - you may also need a little localised heat.
I replaced mine with a 'heavy duty' set from Advanced Factors - certainly look the part but did have one swopped when the tip snapped off tightening the nut up......
Only 'odd' tool needed IIRC was a crows foot adaptor to let you torque the nuts up or you can just go for the 'two gasps, a grunt and a groan' method we used to use on old motorbike engines
