That's good to know. Problem with the BP lottery is that you never know if its going to be the worst crap ever to come out of China or the originals made in the OEM factory.

Thanks for that.
Don't worry - Britpart never goes near my land rovers... gave up on them about 15years ago!
I have a four post ramp so can do it on there to help with the final tighten. It loo ... |

| Just a quick couple of questions - the right front lower control arm on the l322 needs the bush replacing. The outer metal of the bush has pretty much rusted and crumbled away! I was just going to rep ... |

Definitely.
I will take the fronts off and compare them side by side too.
Could mismatched ABS sensors cause this? I.e. a genuine and an aftermarket on the other side?
Weird thing, that coul ... |

| Sorry - you are right, Same make, same size, same pressures (may be different ages) currently on the front, which I agree makes this issue less likely. But has to be worth a try to change the brand ne ... |

Once I get home, I will put the brand new, same make and size rear tyres on the front and see if that makes any difference at all.
Can the sensors be faulty but not enough to throw a fault code? S ... |

| Thanks Jay. Just trying to get an idea of whats going on before I spend more money on this thing! At this rate it will get shut up in the shed where I cant see it and can forget about it! |

Thanks David. Yes, very similar indeed. That one was hanging in third, mines 4th, but other than that, very similar symptoms.
Just checked and my tyres are all the same make and size. I would say ... |

Thanks chaps.
I have had a good search through RRPhils posts but not found this particular situation yet... Some of the RRSport forums report this behaviour if the front wheels are mismatched (i.e. ... |
