To replace the suspension arm on a Suzuki Sx4, start by raising the car. Remove the wheel bolts and take off the wheel. Once the wheel is removed, turn the steering wheel to the right.

Using a 14 mm socket at one end and a spanner at the other, undo the bolt that secures the arm to the brake disc hub, then tap it gently to release the arm's pin from the hub, using a lever if necessary. With a 17 mm socket, remove the other two bolts of the arm, using a lever to assist.

After removing the old arm, take the new one and position it by first inserting the vertical bolt, then the horizontal bolt, and tighten them with a 17 mm socket. Now, by adjusting the hub and the arm, insert the pin into the wheel hub and secure it with a 14 mm socket on one side and a 14 mm spanner on the other.

Finally, refit the wheel and repeat the same process on the left side.
