Was checking the car over today, an to my surprise i saw grease all over my front lower right control arm, an on the inner rim....
Most of the grease was on the fork/control arm bushe which i suspect may have busted itself
Could it also be the cv boots as well??? Im paraniod to drive the car now lol
Im not sure if its the bushes or even something else
The bushes themselves don't hold any grease - what you look for is tears in the bushes.
The Ball Joints are greased, check for torn covers
Also check for torn CV boot covers.

might be an idea to get the whole under chassis checked out while your at it, cause if one has gone chances are others may be on the way out too... or could be other issues such as rear trailing arm bushes etc you can pre-empt
