i have recently bought my cooper s and now found that i am having issues with noise on left turns, i inspected the springs on my ramp today however due to the car being on warranty i am not touching or sorting anything i simply inspected it. What i found is as follows:
Rear Springs are Light Blue and Yellow
Front passenger side is Purple
front drivers side is however just black and i cannot see any stripes on it but the car sits at the exact same height.
is it possible that a spring has been broken at some point and replaced with a non like for like spring. On left turns at low speeds i can hear a rubbing noise which is quite loud so i think it may be down to a wrongly situated spring maybe?
