Hi guys

Due to back problems and waiting surgery, I have to sub out to someone who can change the lowers arms on my MV6, I could do this job myself but my back wont allow me.

I live in the Amersham Bucks area can anyone recommend someone!

Hi Mark, sorry to break your subject thread, but what kind of surgery are you waiting for? The reason I ask is that I had a lower lumbar disc removed & two more fused to a 'sound' disc (L3-4, L5+6+7) in an attempt to 'cure' my work injury. It left me 4" shorter, with limited bend or flex capability and in constant pain which led me to sell my business & take early retirement at 50! Please be sure you have all the facts before Surgery, so you can make an informed decision. Kind Regards, Phil

Hi Phil

Ive already had 1 disc out and on the same path as you  my condition is getting worst so who knows what the future holds! but Ive been refered to Stoke Mandeville as I wasn't happy with Wexham Park hospital Slough who wanted me to go down the same path as you and the surgeon a young public school boy type who was very rude infact, clearly not a Vauxhall owner LOL

He even asked me to contact the hospital who did the first op to find out what spec/parts where used in the fusion, lets just say I reminded him he works for the NHS not me, a garage wouldn't ask that, ok some would LOL

Hi,

Yes, WIM would be the way to go - its at the bottom of the hill as you go into Chesham. Turn right @ the roundabout with Buckingham windows & its then in the estate on your right.

Where in Amersham are you? I used to live on Lincoln Park until I moved recently.

Good luck - Rob
