Rear suspension bushes

Hi,

Just had four new tyres fitted and tracked - advised that D/S rear bushes are worn - not tracking properly - only 56,000km - 2013 1.8d X3.

Seems verye arly for this to happen, hasn't been overloaded etc., anyone else experience this?

Thanks

It has been said on this forum, that you have shitty roads in Ireland, but it still seem to be early.

Do you notice anything? Handling? Tyre wear?

There has been incidents where dealers/shops are pushing for unnecessary work

Trusted indy, no issue. Suburban roads albeit with ramps but still three times the mileage on my car and not a problem.

Strange..

Any symptoms of this issue in how the vehicle drives? Did you have them replaced? Does the vehicle drive different after replacement?

I will say that the front thrust rod bushings on my X3 were found to be cracked at my last service, around 75,000 km.

No drives as normal, but want to get it fixed as don't want excessive tyre wear etc.
