   Looks like the motors rear bean is starting to give up the ghost.
   
   Noticed a scrubbing noise couple of days back, on closer inspection the trye is very close to the inner arch. I can barely get an index finger inbetween tyre and arch whereas the other side there is plenty of space. I'm guessing when the car is in motion it's pushing it just that little bit to make contact.
   
   Question is, roughly how much use have I got before things really go south or unusable, do they deteriorate rapidly?
   
   Cheers

   Are you sure the shock hasn`t collapsed?

   To be honest I never checked just assumed it was the beam. The motor doesn't look lopsided but will have a ganda. Cheers stevo!
