September 2, 201510 yr Hi all, Unfortunately I have had an MOT and it failed on this rusty bit, and driver side rear shock, Does anyone know what it is? And if so where I can buy a second had replacement? thanks,
September 2, 201510 yr At a guess it's the u shaped bit that runs round the front of newage cars, from wishbone to wishbone, maybe subframe related ?
September 2, 201510 yr Maybe ask yourself, if this has happened to yours, then could you be buying a second-hand replacement with the same potential problem? Is this a recall part? Maybe worth checking at a Subaru dealer first.
September 2, 201510 yr Author will try scoob thanks, but its rust and age related to if I find one in good condition and put anti rust stuff on it hopefully will be ok!
September 2, 201510 yr A lot are failing on this now, however I think you can get an aftermarket alloy part from some quick research, ideally someone needs to start putting these into production in oe style however. However it is a bolt on part, and if they become available there could be a good supply of otherwise decent mot failures going cheap.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
September 2, 201510 yr This is from a forester manual but I think you are looking at No.29 - subframe
