I had left the car switched on...

Well, Its a habit or I would say it was a habit that every morning, before leaving for work, I switch on my car just to heat it up, go back inside the house, wear my shoes and then leave...
That morning, as usual, I went down, started the car, went back inside, wore my shoes, and when I came out, the car was not there

Hi Guys...
an update!

there is some squeaking sound coming from the rear left end! I am suspecting the suspension.... any ideas???
the soundis on and off! not consistent... but is the most when I am turning to the right hence the car weight shifting to the left side!

Took the car yesterday to this guy who deals in car suspensions... he had a look and we foundout.....

for lowering the car, the thief did not put in any new suspension or springs or something... instead, he heated the original springs at one point and made them real flat on that point!!!

not that is causing this issue... I spoke to the dealership and they dont have the springs! They will have to order them from Japan and will take around a month to arrive...

I will try and find them from somewhere else... anyone has any ideas??? I am in Dubai, UAE.
