You should be able to tell really, is it the actual trailing arm that has the movement or is the trailing arm solid and the movement around the hub/wheel area.

just the wheel wobbles, the swingin arm is siezed on to the torsion bars n the anti roll bar, good old french rot lol, i ordered a new bearing but it comes with the hub, 87 quid plus vat, rip off citroen bastards lol

usually the beam bushes that give that movement if its just when you grab it at 12 and 6 o'clock and move it in and out. Give the wheel a spin to see if it is the wheel bearing thats gone

Yeh will be the trailing arm bearing - get them replaced asap to minimise the risk of further damaging your trailing arms - the damage could have already been caused though!
