Yes mate if one has gone you can pretty much guarantee the other is not too far behind!

Not wise to just change one as this can offset the balance of the car due to one being stronger than the other.

I'm getting the exact same thing with my MY00 sti wagon, anyone recommend a decent (and not too pricey) replacement?

Cheers,
Paul
