Hi everybody
I have a 1999 BMW 323i (e46). I was advised to have the ball joints and control arm bushes replaced. Now my question is - Can the ball joints be replaced seperately or do I have to replace the complete control arm. I have received conflicting advise. Some say yes the ball joints can be replaced and others say NO I have to replace the complete control arm because it is aluminium and the ball joints cannot be pressed out.
I would really appreciate some assistance. Thank you
