mine made some knocking noises then one day drove on to my drive (low kerb) slowly and passenger side went bang. i forund pi sports springs on ebay at around £40 for a set of 4 when I changed them drivers side was also broke a little. change both fronts at least I think its fairly common prob with fabias and golfs etc its not that hard a job to do yourself provided every thing is not too rusted and get decent spring compressors as cheap ones can be a nightmare i borrowed 3 from a work friend and was so glad not to have only 2. you'll need socket set allen keays maybe some torqs some jacks put wheels under car if you dont have axel stands. when taking off the stabilising bars theres a washer type thing at the back that has flats lock that with a spanner or adjustable. may need to replace them dependent on condition about £20 for the pair. spray everything your undoing with lube like gt40 or wd40 after you yake the wheel off and leave for 30mins or so its so much easie. new standard springs on ebay are about £35_£45 a piece so £70 from garage is good
