Our IV was done under recall december 2005. Ring Colt Car Company 01285 655 777 with your chassis number mate, i found that the best way as the dealer also told us it didnt need doing.

They replace the Rear upper suspension arms due to a possible crack occuring in the press fit portion of the bush. It takes approx 3 hours but some people have needed to leave the car for a whole day due to problems with the filler neck if i remember correctly.

It is free of charge which is a bonus

Hope that helps you.
