Just had both front springs replaced and the garage fitted one on the springs upside down and the spring was deformed badly to one side after I first drove it. The result was the car pulled badly to the right. Having had the spring re fitted correctly the car now still pulls to the right, Not heavily but annoyingly. It was perfectly planted before the work. Tracking has been checked and is spot on. My feeling is one or both springs have not been seated properly giving different hight or more likely the strut has been bent.
Any thoughts ?
 
No other than once it is fixed ,then dont use that garage again . Simple job like that and to get it wrong tells you never trust them again . Might not be a matched pair of front springs, who knows ... they come in pairs if purchased from a good parts depot .Also rubber seats that the spring sits in could be upside down, and with this garage , then anythings possible And if the spring was fitted wrong ,.it could have damaged a part of the suspension .Springs are designed to move up and down with no lateral movement .Dont let the garage off ..You must keep going back till it is sorted to you liking . .
