I jacked my car up quick to have a look just on the drivers side, and it looks as though the bushings are going / gone in the lower suspension arm, and also thinking it could be the ball joint thats causing me the problem, so it looks like i'm going to have to replace the arms, which have the ball joint already attached to.

Just to clarify, the bushing in the arm is all split, not terribly but still split, its not in pieces, and I assume that means It needs replacing?

And another thing, I noticed when I took the wheel off is the Hub assembly? The part with the bolts on you put the wheel on, was very slightly loose behind the brake disc, when I had the wheel attached, I check for play and couldn't feel anything, its just when the wheel is off, i moves very slightly, just a fraction, is that a problem?
