This Broke Off My Car!!!

#1
i was sat in my car in the supermarket parking lot when all of a sudden i hear this big 'twang!' from the drivers side front wheel, i even felt the vibration through the car, i was eating a sandwich at the time just chilling in my car and texting my sweetheart, i got out checked under the wheel arch and under the bonnet, i took it it in the carpark for a spin, testing my suspension i got something more serious than this ...






i got it off in the carpark

i have the advisory notes from the last mot of my car it reads 'offside front (rear) Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated but not resulting in excessive movement [2.4.G.3]'

i need my car to go to work, and i dont need to make the suspension springs snap while im driving. it got me to work and back fine, im just worried something is up with my car, this could be a major issue for me, i know need advice, support

Those are some big ass pics... re-sizing at the moment.

EDIT: So what is it then? It looks like a part of your coil spring broke off, though I don't get what that description is supposed to indicate.

How big would this thing be? ^ Coil spring piece, good fuckin guess! I thought it was like a piece of trim or protective cover but never realized it could be a much smaller object. Like a piece of coil spring.

If it *is*, its pretty fucked up your shit is just snapping off left and right.

it is part of the coil spring of the drivers side, from the top of the spring i guess, it drives good and there is no change to the wheel alignment, maybe im riding lower at the front now, that would be gangster

yeah, my phone is big at picture taking lol :)
