    Jmac would be the best to ask mate, since he can see, touch and feel your T5. How we should know without seeing your van what else is in need of replacing?
    Trust your mechanic, after all Jmac has a good reputation here.

    Yes good point Jimmy did mention the camber bushes when he did the timing belt late last year but as is the case Jim is a busy man and he gets more work on his plate tan he can handle sometimes . I thought with all the knowledgeable people on the forum some would have instant suggestions .

    Have to agree completely, Jimmy is the best mechanic I've ever had, BUT, he needs a clone or 2 to help him out. Very busy, very difficult to get to him in an emergency as you really need to book him 2-3 months out .....

    He also is in urgent need of an admin assistant IMO
