Bit of a weird one. On the offside rear the car sits an inch lower, almost, than on the near side rear. However the front near side sits half an inch lower than the front offside. It has all new springs and rear shocks and soon will have new front shocks as well. I've heard things of the cars levelling out when they've been filled but I don't kno, don't use it that often so don't really fill it that often. Any ideas? Anyone else got anything similar?

Thanks

Check it on flat ground with the brakes off or having gradually stopped. Did the top mounts get changed at the same time?

If the problem did not exist before fitting the new springs then presumably there's a reason involving their fitting.

When I did the rear shock absorbers I changed the top mounts but the fronts haven't been done yet but when I do them the top mounts will be done. I didn't notice anything before I had the springs done so it might just be that they're not seated properly, or at least I hope that's what it is.

The tracking is fine as well, straight and true, don't know if the springs would affect that?

only thing i can think of is them not being seated right or dodgey springs?

Springs are brand new, H&R springs, sweet as a nut. Will check the seating on them. Thanks

Yeah as above I would guess one is not sat down correctly.

If it was just needing to settle both sides would be high the same.
