Well changed out the front air/suspension struts today and the car now drives completely different .....wow makes the car drive how it should, the old air strut on the left was quite soft to push up and down where the right side was totally different and bloody hard could not push it down at all. So very happy now no squeaking and spongy ride. Thanks everyone for your contribution.

PAO motoring was the manufacture but purchased through autopart-center on ebay no instructions but took me about 1.5 hrs on the first side then 1 hr on the right side, removing the airline was a bit tricky.
Jacked up the car and dropped out the top ball joints, removed the lower shock bolt and removed the top struts bolts, removed one of the connections to the sway bar a few brake line holding bolts with the strut loose could rotate the strut i could unclip the airline and remove the strut the right side was far quicker. Can't believe this made so much difference to the ride.

Also after changing them out the i had to start the car as there was no air in the shock, could not remove the jack until the shock was raised and inflated

Not at this stage, i did purchase the Mini-VCI but having issues loading it to the computer, one of the reasons I bought it so I could calibrate myself, my mechanic has one and last time after removing the tops of the air shock had to clear the fault.
Took it for its first night drive last night great lights and the ride is fantastic.
