To replace the control arm on the Seat Ibiza, the steps are as follows. First, we need to remove the wheel, the wheel arch liner, and the brake disc along with the corresponding brake pads to have enough working space.

As shown in the video, we first unscrew the three bolts closest to the wheel, then remove the other two bolts positioned at each end of the control arm. Once this is done, we can proceed with the replacement of the control arm by following the same disassembly procedures in reverse.

After replacing it, we can reassemble the disc, the brake pads, and everything that is part of the wheel component group.
