Bushes can be replaced but the bolts usually seize so the arms are best just cut off. That means new arms, unfortunately, but is usually cheaper than paying a man to spend hours getting the bolts out.

Arms aren't too bad - around £300 for a pair for OEM with bolts - plus fitting time. Expect to pay c.£600 at an indie. If you go to a franchised LR dealership, expect to pay £800+.

Probably won't. The bushes make a noise but still "work" so likely not to be picked up. Fingers crossed, anyway! 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
