Hi everyone this is gonna be a bit of a reach but I'm an idiot in cars. I have a 2016 mini cooper clubman 1.5L base model. I was unaware of my suspension coil spring's beef with staying put together, so it decided to break. Not sure why or how long its been thinking of ending it, but my car now has been lowered for free.
Anywho, its to my attention i have no idea how to find the right car part so i can look for aftermarket fixes and such. I have the vin and bmw/mini website is trying to look through a midwestern junk drawer and i can't see a part number on the broken part. I have used all the major car part places. Nobody has it. I have used rock auto, repair link, and even amazon and nobody has this strut assembly. Any direction or advice would be super appreciated. Thank you in advance.
