Recently had front coil springs changed after one snapped at low speed

Now the drive feels different like maybe there is something alittle loose
especially on pot holes or rough roads

I am swaying towards bushes etc on the front end maybe worn or well past there date.
can anybody off er a solution or suggest what bushes might need looking at with aview to replacing or is it the new springs?
:dk:
 
I would check the lower ball joints first as they would generally wear more than the control arm bushes. Hope this helps
 
Look at the thrust arm bushes and front lower ball joints. Were genuine mb springs fitted?
 
Many thanks for the replies it appears to be the lower ball joints they have been replaced and the car feels fantastic again
