Removing a coil spring can be a hazardous task, so it is crucial to exercise extreme caution and adhere closely to the provided instructions to avoid any serious injuries. It is essential to utilize a reliable and top-notch spring compressor and meticulously follow the guidelines provided by the manufacturer for the tool's proper usage.

If you're removing the left-side coil spring, start by detaching the ELC (Electronic Level Control) height sensor link from the control arm. Install a suitable interior-style spring compressor through the bottom of the control arm and onto the coil spring, compressing it enough to relieve all pressure from the spring seats. Detach the rear stabilizer bar link from the control arm and the lower end of the shock absorber from the control arm, as well as the airline from the shock absorber. Place a floor jack under the inside edge of the control arm to support it. Paint alignment marks to indicate the position of the coil spring pigtail in the insulator slot.

Check the strut body for leaking fluid, dents, cracks, and other obvious damage that would require repair or replacement. Check the coil spring for chips and cracks in the spring coating, as this can cause premature spring failure. Inspect the spring seat for hardening, cracks, and general deterioration. If wear or damage is evident, replace the strut.
