I've noticed what looks like oil on my exhaust near to a bush at the rear near side, just wondering if its possible to get a replacement bush and what the part number is?

Not what I was expecting a picture of ;)

 

You can get uprated ones for the rear spring carrier :thumbs:

 

EDIT - Just in case I misunderstood - you won't get oil out of that bush - the diff may be but not the bush :)

I wash in diff oil :lol:

 

Well I had a nice wash in gearbox oil when DarrenB came by to change his clutch - he poured it all over me I'm sure he did it on purpose as well :lol:

Cheers Chris, perhaps its just oil from a diff oil change I had done a year or 2 ago in that case then.

 

I've got a wheel wobble when cornering hard and which can also be felt over bumps, so a suspension bush having worn would seem to make sense to me.

 

Need to take it to the garage to get it up on a lift and have a nosey I think.

That looks like copper grease to me.

I've not got a very good photo of it, the car is still on the floor. I was referring to the bush behind the screw which is covered in copper grease.

@ Gudzy - It is possible that the heat from the zorst is getting the grease hot enough to drip on the Zorst - give it a clean and see if it comes back.

 

If you have wheel wobble then defo get it on a ramp could be bearing or a bush - if it is wallow or a slight rocking when turning in hard I would also be looking at the shocks may be warn or failed (they can also leak oil)

 

Just a few things for you to consider, hope it helps :thumbs:
