Hi all. o/s/r suspension appeared to have a spring snapped/broken. Car sat low that corner and the whole car vibrated when driving.
Didn't like braking and generally 'felt' unwell.
Anyway, had both springs changed. No broken spring to be found?? Car rides ok now, but o/s/r is still sitting lower than n/s/r.
Mecahanic says that the shocks aren't leaking.
M-tech suspension on a 130k car. Knackered? Could it be the shock?
Any and all advice appreciated....

Not sure about the ride height but 130k shocks are likely to be pretty knackered on a car that's probably been driven "enthusiastically" most of it's life!

Shocks shouldnt affect the ride height, try swopping the springs around. Nothing in the boot, tyre pressures the same, same tyre sizes, stupid I know. But possible. HTH
