Inserting the rubber-metal bearing
  Note
t  Never use grease!
t  Use assembly sliding oil -G 294 421 A1- to insert.
t  This leaves a slightly sticky film, which ensures a tight fit of the bearing.
t  Commercially available greases/oils are usually acidic and leave behind a grease film.
t  This could result in a corrosion of the bearing or during compression and rebound of the vehicle the whole rubber-metal bearing may turn in the track control arm and not the actual rubber in itself.
