MP3 greaser bolt/nipr I get my 2013 MP3 300 this week. Due to its age I want to do basic service ASAP. Having noted the steering bearing disc I want to pack them. I have seen there is a tool)bolt I can use to get it done. However after much looking I can't find the bolt/nipple. Any link would be v appreciated. I have health issues so the easier the better, oh plus I'm male

I'm sure Fowlers of Bristol have them listed . Where in scotland are you.
