Depends on the use - in your car's case, 46k miles

I have that on my car and my RTABs went at just under 50k miles - I had to pay for them to be replaced - they are considered a wear item.

I think you would only get away with that if they were faulty and didn't last past what might be considered normal use.

PS. Welcome to the mad-house . We have a Whats-App group going if you want to have nearly 100 owners at your beck and call for answers .

thanks for the welcome. How much did it cost?
PM the group details please.

I'll have to check my history, as it was one of the first things that got replaced when I bought the car.

PM sent .

RTAB replaced around 25k. Only showed up on track. All bushes replaced around 45-50k. Can't remember actual millage off the top of my head
