What's caused this and likely repair cost
« on: 22 November 2012, 19:05 »
Hi,

I noticed a noise coming from my car and upon looking found this had happened:



Is it safe to drive? and what's the likely cost to repair, to be honest I'm not even sure what's happened or caused this?

What will need replacing?

It's the same on the other side (both rear)

Thanks in advance!

The likely cause was a small elf with a ginger beard.

Likely cost, 37.50 and a folklore tale.

Not worth replacing until you replace the shocks in the future.
