Fuel tank looks like its more on the driverside to me. Are we talking when theres noone in the car? If your driversides lower when noones in the car then imagine how it looks when your driving along the road with a full tank ;)

shocks could be knackered, push down on the suspension if it comes back up and settles straight away then there ok, if it just bounces about there knackered

I have this problem..
Drivers side sits perfect but passenger side is abit higher jus like yours..
I think its because i'm usually the only person in it and thats like a constant 80kg's or watever on one side all the time..
