This was fitted by a well known 'specialist'
It was apparrently brand new, fitted about 2 months ago
it's just been replaced, as it was worn out OMG
The same place that sent van for an MOT after 'fixing' the brakes

The pitting on that looks far more than 2 months worth. 'Brand new' taken off a scrap vehicle? You do seem to have hit upon a trustworthy specialist... not.

According to another thread, he has changed his 'name'. Can we play hangman with the new one?
Not that it affects me, I have a trustworthy specialist 5 minutes from my front door, "which is nice"
on a more embarassing note, I have no idea what that part is
