Hi all. Pure speculation, as the squeeking I hear may not be a worn part, but in searching upper control arm bushing replacement, it seems that, currently, Meyle isn't that great, but Febi is ok. Another brand suggested to me, was Lemforder. This appears to be the part (2 wd): Enter PN: 10174 01 in "search" lower LH of page: http://webcat-services.zf.com/index.asp?SPR=4 Has anyone installed this brand of bushing? If so, how many miles have you seen from this part? It's raining out and I'm side lined with allergies (yes. boo hoo) so too much time to search the 'net..... ;) Neil.
