Also took the car for a test drive to Diagnose suspension problems I was having. He says the "caster arm" bushing needs replacing for the front left. Is this another name for the Upper control arm? He pointed to what needed doing, which I believe was upper control arm.

another question:
Anyone knows where to get this sensor cheaper in AUS than 170 $, US price is less than 20 $:

Climate Control System: Temperature Sensor. My suspicions about my ongoing heater problem (AKA the heater that won't turn itself off) were answered with this. I have believed for a long time that the driver side Heater Core temperature sensor was faulty and I think this confirms this. Now I just have to contend with dismantling the centre console to replace it. Does anybody know where to get this specific sensor from cheaper? Dealer quoted AUD$170 special order from Germany. Part Number 64 11 1 384 253
