Glad your back to full health bar the pads. :-)

Would be interesting to have a look at those old wishbones...do you know how old they where? Did you have a look at the knuckle joint(play) and bushes splits/tears? Strange one this imho.

They are still in the garage, I was going to take em to the tip next week . If you want any photo's tell me of what !!! AFAIK they were the original fit, so 86,000 miles. The guys at WIM told me the front bushes (the horizontal bolt ones) were shot, and they look cracked/split to me. I'll try and get some piccies for you.

fair enough, they needed replacicing, just my experience seems different to your symptoms, would expect the wheels to point toward 10 and 2 o clock(toe out) rather than both towards 12 o clock.(tow in) ...... I think?  Maybe just me?
