Hi all,

I just took my recently acquired 1989 110 County in for a service and there's some stuff I don't understand the significance of (or price of getting fixed either!) I'm primarily a bodywork guy. Can anyone assist in explaining how dire these first 3 items requiring attention are please?
Many thanks,

Hub seals and Radius arm is dire imo. Any worn bushes can throw off alignment and possibly cause a death wobble in the future etc. Hub seals also are something i would sort out. if the source of the leak is coming from your wheel bearings again something I would address asap.

c3 spec for that motor is like 20 years in the future. Designed more for motors with aftertreatment systems.
What motor do you have?

For the td5 they recommend A5/B5 Acea spec, but this is a very fuel-efficient spec. Try 5w40 A3/B4 Spec for better protection of your motor.

It’s not a TD5 though. Probably a 19J 2.5TD, or maybe a 200tdi transplant. Neither of which are particularly fussy as to exact specs.
Front hub seal leaks could possibly just be the rubber hub caps.

i know thats why i asked the motor type. For any motor, the specs are 1000% percent important. Quality of oil, maybe you can play around with but do your research and you will understand. Google lake speed the oil geek.
