Hiya!

Would love some advice, if anyone has experience of this.

I recently experienced a problem with my Boxster where the car would lurch, especially when you take your foot off the throttle. We put the car on a ramp and the LHS rear wheel had some play in it. We narrowed it down to a Track Control Arm, part number 997-331-045-04. Replaced it, and she drove perfectly once again.

6 weeks later the problem has come back and my mechanic is closed for the 3 weeks. Is it possible that the same TCA has worn out so quickly? Or possibly another part has worn? Seems really weird. Love to her any ideas on this.

Regards,

John
