Hi All - Wonder if you may be able to help.
I have an 07 plate 9-3 Vector Sport 1.9tid Estate and after it's recent service and MOT was advised one of the front springs had broken. This consequently failed the MOT. The garage used for this work was Saab approved.
I was also advised that the Saab branded parts were on a 5-7 day back order, however the garage recommended alternatives that were available next day - Kilen part number 23011's.

After fitting I have noted that there is a noticeable increase in the gap between the top of the front wheels and the top of the front wheel arch. Where the front of the car used to have that more sporty look with its slightly lower profile, it no longer has this.

Would anyone be able to advise if the Kilen springs that have been installed are the correct replacement for the vector sport range? Initially I thought it would just need some time to bed down, but after 2 weeks this does not appear to be the case.

Any feedback would be greatly received!
Thanks in advance.
