easy
 
related to springs, I think. In my MOT it had a provisary note saying rear shocks slightly corroded. Today I have noticed the rear is lower on the pass side than driver side on what seems to be level ground. Does this mean my shocks have gone, also are shocks and springs the same thing?

springs are the round coiled things - shocks are the long ish tubular things, more often called dampers
