Has the shuddering gone??? You had problems with the shuddering first time your tyres were scrubbing right?

No shuddering, but I measured it today, the passenger side of the car is 1 inch higher at the front of the doors than the drivers side....

I think I might go and chat with the garage and say "oi, I think you've set my suspension up wrong, 'cos you didn't notice a broken spring.... wouldn't you just love to correct your mistake for free, and maybe I'll keep using you".
