Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had my car serviced a couple weeks ago and clean bill of health. They did suggest replacing the 'tuning forks', they said also known as 'Longitudinal control arms' in the near future/next service though. I looked up in the tech section and found a useful guide about replacing the 'forked control arms'. I'm assuming these are the same thing. Can anyone confirm? I think I might DIY based on the write-up...
