                I can't answer for them or for Hanny's. It could be anything! Definitely book an appointment with either so they can investigate?

                  you crashed into a gutter - obviously the problem is a damaged suspension component or a damaged body part.

                  did you have a look?

                  most people can spot broken stuff...

                    common problem is the steering rack.
                    could be that also.

                        Have a look at the coilover first I have this problem, and its the coilover. Have a good look for oil and touch it. If its oily then there's a leak somehwere.

                            Your stock shocks may be busted worth having a look.

                              dad took his car there when he had a similar problem. he checked it out for him and told him it wasnt anything major. dad offered to pay him for his time, he said dont worry about it. even gave my dad a cup of coffee while he was there lol.
