Maintenance

On all models of the Metro and Rover 100 there are parts of the suspension that pivot. On the back is where the radius arm is connected to the sub frame. There are a small grease nipple at the end of the pivot shaft. Surrounding this pivot shaft are bearings. It is these bearings which need regular greasing. From memory it should be minimum of every 3 months. 

Sadly the metro has a few places which are known for rusting. This can be prevented easily before it starts, or can considerably reduce the rate if there are signs of it starting.

To service your Metro, you will need to renew and check the following items. A stitch in time saves nine! Don't be caught out.
