I've got a wee problem here in Tenerife.
Our car, Seat Leon 1.9D 2010 needs;
1 X bottom ball joint. Left.
1 X drop link. Right.
1 X Outer CV joint boot. Right.
1 X set discs and pads (not desperate)
The obvious problem is that I am here and my tools are in Edinburgh.
Other than be bled dry, I would like to do as much as I can.
i.e. Everything except the CV boot.
I'll be back in Edinburgh in a few days, for a few days, then back here. But, I don't want to come back with a suitcase full of tools so, I was going to buy the minimum tools required here.
Could someone please confirm some sizes for me?
I believe the calipers sliders are 7mm Allen key.
I think the disc retainers are T30 but my eyesight is cr@p so not exactly sure.
Drop links are probably 17mm or 19mm. Will they come off with one spanner or will they need held at the other side (across flats)?
Parts are a similar price to U.K. prices and I can get all the same brands, too.
Any help will be appreciated.
