That happened on my SA. I pressed in new ball joints when I did my suspension upgrades without tack welding it in. It lasted 9 months on the left side and one day while pulling out of the shop it collapsed and the steering went all splayed out and wonky. I tried to press another new ball joint into the stock control arm, but there just wasn't enough metal left inside the collar to hold it in without welding. I just ended up with T3 adjustable control arms as the fix.
Are FD control arms like S5? Non serviceable?
