Broke front spring a3 1.8t sport

[_Alex_D_]

So drove off other day and heard big clunk, thought that's spring gone.

Took to local garage and they have replaced one with a oem spring. My problem is the front now sits higher. I spoke to them and they said could be because they only did one but also could be because springs were old.

If I'd of known I'd have told them to put eibach sport on but they've done it. Not sure what's best to do now.

It'll be where you've only replaced one spring, the other three will be tired and sitting lower.

Best bet would be to shove a new set of springs on at least, or really a set of shocks and springs/coilovers; so the dampers are matched to the springs.

Would changing the other side help or not? Thing is one spring is on so coli overs would mean I've waisted 100 quid
