  My van has just had its 2nd Bottom wishbone arm in just over 6months.Garage said that the part should really last for a couple of years but said that just lately with the roads in such a state that they now change such parts very often.I always try to avoid the holes but sometimes its just not possible.

  Yes, it was Kent-wide Howard, but this is the area that is most important to us all here.
