The rear subframe is cracked on one side and completely broken on the other. I have heard that to repair is to insert a smaller tube on the inside and reweld as this will give it more strength. What is the sub frame made of and what type of welder should be used, Mig, tig etc?
So is mine and they still replaced as it is a known fault. Get a quick repair done to do the trackday then get it replaced
JerryXt thank for the offer, very kind of you. I have a welder around the corner from me, so now going to try and repair it and if not I'll give you a shout. Would you know what the sub frame is made from, is it Aluminum?
What rubbish. The risk of no insert is it will crack again after welding anyway as it is poorly designed. The risk still exists if you buy a new one, design is still wrong. I needs welding with tig (by someone who knows what they are doing) and a triangular brace adding externally. That's the only way to fix it properly.
