A dude at my work did a wof on my galant yesterday and pointed out the play in both rear lateral arms...you could swing them backwards and forwards into the sway bar! so i rang mitsi and they said max play is .2mm and it is quite a common fault.....if its a common fault why the hell aint there any parts in the country! i have to wait 10 - 15 working days for them to come from japan!!!

just wondering if anyone else has had a wof fail on these...

Is this one of the recall jobs? If so, could be a cheap fix.

sorry to say but none of the recalls will be covered here in nz by mitsi nz,
they will just say its ware and tare. so tough luck. you will have to pay for it.

(ive already asked them about it)

and besides this isnt a recall item, that was the lower ball joints
