Warning - Broken control arm bolt! - Toyota Yaris Forums

My fiance's 07' sedan has been making this clunk for a few months now, I ordered the new bolts just in case I need them. I'll crawl under there and check them out tomorrow before work and let you know how they look! Has anyone had success drilling a small drain hole in the sub-frame? Seems like a logical fix to me.

Yes Ive heard of doing that. Toyota has a proceedure to seal up the area with some goo or other.
