The Darklord gets that joyful feeling

[Darklord]

Yes loyal ones, the Dark one one continues to terrorise upright, law abiding citizens on the queens highway, sweeping past them with disdain in my magnificent Vectra, bestowing my favours by gifting them an oily film on thier windscreen as I thrash the weedy nag under the bonnet senseless in my endless search for any discernable performance. Actually, oil consumption is considerably reduced since pouring Tate&Lyle molasses into the engine. Time to sell your shares in those oil companies, the family inheritance is saved!

However I digress! What a patient lot you are, you hadn't noticed anyway. Such has been my joy at reaching 147000 trouble free miles (What a remarkable car this is) that I have been enthusiasticly destroying apexes whilst shaming Porches etc, but recently the rear end has decided to join the party with a rather odd wobble, or feeling of lightness.

This was greatly amplified recently with the weight of rear passengers, who screams of joy added to the celebrations. Well, I assume they were screaming in admiration, who wouldnt in the back of a vectra?

I have a feeling that something is amiss with the rear end. But given that the clutch is on borrowed time, I fear that the end of the road is near.

Perhaps the weight of all the empty oil containers in the boot has proved too much!

Worn outer bushes in the rear upper control arms, aka banana arms.

It’s just a story, I’m sure if there was a fault that wanted curing there would be a post in the troubleshooting section

The troubleshooting section has been temporarily closed by admin. It'll be repurposed and reopened in a couple of months, post Brexit, for members to request assistance in finding a filling station that still has supplies of diesel or petrol and for news about any Vauxhall dealers who have managed to buy in parts from the continent.

They put bananas in the rear suspension? No wonder the rear end wobbles! I'm off to the supermarket fruit and veg department...

It doesn't matter really, I think I'll be moving it along soon.

yeah with the gearbox on it's way you'd better get rid quickly...
