We've owned the car for ten years and almost 100k. Not sure how brake fluid or coolant would be an issue but...

Its been maintained throughout.
Timing belt water pump etc changed two years 10k ago. Tie rods inner and outer last year along with drop links. Brake flush and rear calipers last year along with trans fluid steering fluid. New tyres about 1k ago (thought this may be a factor unfortunately not)

Springs, ball joints, shocks I haven't changed and wondered what was the most likely culprit. No advisory on the mot and the local garage we use say it all seems serviceable under there and question the sense of replacement.

His view is it's a 15 year old car. It's just old age.

For me from the driver's seat it has become significantly more harsh over potholes recently.
