Hello all,
I found myself with this GS through an internet purchase, couldn't see much under the car when picking it up, made it home 400 miles just fine. Once getting it home, I was able to get under it and wanted to ask those of you that have had one for more than two weeks about the following items. This gunk (seemingly lithium grease) that's been sprayed over all the bushings, was this intended to mask the deteriorating condition of these items?
This is the worst instance, on the upper control arm -
Are these consumables, and how does one go about procuring and replacing these bushings? Or are these bushings?
Also - this exhaust set up, is this a secondary cat delete attempt, and does the rest of it look stock?
Thank you for any suggestions and input. Wish me luck as I begin this endeavor in to maserati ownership.
