I had planned to replace the springs even if I couldn't see that there were any wrong with them. Then I came across something where they talked about spring pad shims. I already long time ago bought two new spring pads to have as a spare for future fix. I didn't understand that there were different thickness of them. The two new ones I have bought is of the 2 **** model and 9 mm thick. I looked at old photos I have took of the car's rear springs but can not see which there are installed at the car.

Anyone here who know what the original thickness or how many ***** they have as standard on the Crossfire ?

Have a look here were I examine the rear springs, at bottom the new spring pad and some links with information.

I'm very glad that I at last found this and now know how to fix it.

The spring could be broken.
