Broken spring? Quite common with Omega's.

Nice piccys mate, they seem to also show the inner tyre wearing that the camber on our steeds causes :(

BTW not saying that you'rs are dodgy.

does it rattle with the brakes on?. mine rattles like hell and its the pattern rear pads are slightly too small. try driving with the brake on slightly, if theres no rattle  thats your problem
