Since finding out the Car needs the Sub frame repair done, I would presume it would be a good idea while it is stripped and to save time / Money to get some parts replaced.

The question is what parts are standard "Consumables" (wear/Tear items) that would be a idea to replace while this process is happing and anything else you would recommend in replacing.

Thanks in advanced as my knowledge is limited to changing a wheel on a car! and filling it up with Petrol.

Haven't done it yet but two people have now suggested these to me:Turner bush limiting kits (http://www.simpsonmotorsport.co.uk/bmw-tuning/product.asp?id=67&pid=67&cid=5&pcid=12&product=66)

I had all of the subframe bushes & rear trailing arm bushes replaced, goodridge hoses fitted & TMS limiter kit done at the same time.

The dealer also fitted all brand new heat shields as well.
