Line clips loose:

Check whether line clips are correctly screwed and holder halves are correctly engaged

Line holders on hydraulic lines missing or fitted in incorrect position

Check whether line clips are present in accordance with repair instructions and fitted in correct position

Check minimum distance in case of hydraulic clearance (insufficient clearance):

First check minimum distance (A) = 3 mm between control line (1) and swivel motor (2).

Then check control line (3) with minimum distance (B) = 8 mm to control line (1).

Refer here to repair instructions: Removing and installing/replacing front active anti-roll bar .

Check screw connection at SETPOINT TORQUE for tight fit. Setpoint torques are set out in the repair instructions.
