When you drop the car from the hoist, the weight of the car would have compressed the entire portion of the soft section leaving behind the hard section. When spring is lowered, the traveling space within wheel arch is reduce before bottoms out. Hence the spring had to offer shorter compress distance and it's only possible with harder spring.Yes, my car is still leaking but not serious. My definition of not serious means less than 1L per 10,000km. If I were to fix every little leak, the car would have bankrupted me. Only 4 sets of valve cover gasket were used during the 5 years ownership. Why only 4 sets? Because during warranty period, I claim when ever possible but after warranty over, I allowed it to stretch.</blockquote>
