Just had the car serviced and the garage found that the front offside coilover spring has broken the top coil off (eibach pro street s) , would I have to replace both front springs ? Only been on the car just over 2 years , and only doing about 9000 miles a year , would have thought it would have lasted longer than this .

Definately get in contact with whoever fitted them for you, they should be able to advise you on what kind of warranty they have on them (most only have as little as 1 year!).

They should definately be changed on both sides otherwise the allignment will be out and cause even more problems later on.

All sorted , Jabba replaced both front springs under warranty. Sounds strange, but the car had't felt any different before this morning, but feels a lot better now.
