garage tells me these are not available as individual items have to buy new arms, other tell me they are, who is correct? I know the rear can be purchased individually but front.

Looks to me as if the garage you went to is a rip off merchant

Any suggestions for the high CO reading This year fast idel 0.65% 2nd fast idle 0.72% last year fast idel 0.01% 2nd idle 0.04%

Be very careful to check with any supplier that the wishbones are for the Scorpio '95-> model - there seems to be a lot of confusion and many will supply the part for a Mk3 Granada in error. I got a brand new pair from a company in Germany made by Quinton Hazell - could not find anyone in the UK who could supply them even though a lot of motor factors had the part listed in QH & FAI catalogues - I was told that they had tried ordering the part but had not been able to get it.

Star sign is Scorpio ! Sierra XR4i's are great...especially when fitted with 4WD
