Sent my 1997 318i to get the wheels aligned today and my left rear wheel was badly worn and needed replacing. After replacing both rear wheels the guys doing the alignment couldnt adjust the camber on the left rear as they said the lower control arm bush needed replacing in order for them to adjust the camber.Need some advise on where to source the bushing and how much would it cost to replace. Do I need to replace the whole lower control arm or just the bush replacement would suffice. There is also a nut that goes through the bush(the one they need to turn to adjust the camber), does that also need replacing?Any advice much appreciated as the guys at the alignment shop said that the problem would recur if the bush is not replaced as the camber is quite a way out and cant be adjusted.Many thanks in advance
 
malas lak nak speaking.. haha wan.. mmg slalu kes nak adjust chamber tu jamm.. pakai gun pun tak blh buka nuts tu. nanti kat kedai tayar cuba cara manual.. ketuk pakai hammer + paip panjang. mmg berderai nuts tu turun,
kalau karat teruk sangat tukarlah.. bushing tu x mahal pun rm90-rm120 je. upah pasang lain kira. tapi bushing tu lifetime pakai.. x payah tukar takpe.. walaupun ada pecah2 skit.
