Hi. No. There's an oily substance around the inside of the drivers side wheel so it looks like a leak of some sort. I rang the garage and they're going to take a look tomorrow if I can get it there.

£800 for that is super steep as it is a reasonably easy DIY job!

What...replacing the front king pins, bearings and seals? The price also included the MOT...

Fyi parts alone came to £350 ish...although I know I could've got them a bit cheaper online, it was an mot fail and I needed my car.

Find another garage. 800 quid for the kingpins and a test is obscene.
