MG ZT suspension issue
 
Hi All
Ime a new member of the forum, I have a 2005 mg ZT CDTI, which is a superb car to drive, I love driving it.
Recently I’ve heard a metallic scrapping noise offside rear and the wheel looks like it’s leaning in, just wondered if anyone had some advice.

Many thanks

Corroded rear upper arms possibly?

Should get it checked immediately by a professional for safety I'd have thought.


I'm sure that the experts will be along shortly to give their views. In the meantime you could use the search box for rear wheels leaning in perhaps.

Yes the upper rear arm has folded, new ones are available for £70 per side ;)

As above, unfortunately it'll be the rear arm - we have them available here:

Offside is due in a few days.

If you can fit a 2nd hand item to get you through until January you can make a huge saving and join the list for a set arriving in January / February:

Good luck :D

Thank you for all you’re advice, I’ve taken it off the road and will investigate next week
