Replace rear springs on 2012 PJS

[pj123]

Took my 2012 PJS in for a service yesterday to my local Mitsu dealer and they wanted to replace the rear springs because they are making a noise. I hear nothing myself. Is this something I should be considering as the car has now done 222,000 km?

Can you hear a noise....?

No. Just had a look at the service manual and it advises to check for "deterioration and sagging". Both look OK on a visual inspection to my untrained eye. But maybe they were talking about the shock absorbers and I misunderstood.

Very unusual for springs to fail. Very unusual for shocks to make a noise, but, shocks do have a life span..At 220,000km l would suggest they maybe stuffed..

 

How much do they want to replace them...?
