snapped spring?



  Clio 182
My car just scared me lots..

Having a play round some back lanes I drive on regularly earlier, and when I turn left on a slightly bumpy section of road, the car kicks right out at the back - no damping, it kind of skips over the bumps but because of this cant grip the road (at all)

I slowed down and did a few things to see what causes it, if the road is smooth there isnt any noticable problem, its just on bumpy sections the car is totally out of control.

Obviously I need to get this sorted out striaght away, but I'm hoping its just a snapped spring - do these symptoms fit that?

At least it gives me an excuse to lower it a bit if so :)
