About 2/3 of a loop of spring coil flew off my car this morning as I was driving down the road - from the front passenger side (looks like from the very bottom of the spring). Still seems to drive ok, but does make a nasty noise when turning the wheel more than half way (I guess its the fractured end of spring rubbing).
Is this something I need to get fixed before really using the car again or is it just an asap job?
Am I right in thinking both side need replacing together? What sort of cost are we looking at for a couple of springs?
Is it a big job? I think some of the bushes might be shot at the front too which I gather can be a big job and wonder if its worth getting them done at the same time to save on labour in the long run.
Cheers
