civic is sagging on Front Driver side
what make the car sagging in the front?
i have honda civic ex2000 and just notice the driver side is little bit more low than the driver side,
i have KYB adjustable for 3yrs now and a tein lowered spring,
im trying to figure it out if its the camber or the struts?
any opinion guys?

Well, camber is simply an alignment angle; it's not actually a tangible thing.
I'd say it's most likely a leaking strut if there's no noise when you're going over bumps; if it is, the car probably bounces a little after you hit a bump. It could also possibly be a bad or broken spring, but I don't really see a TEIN product going bad in 3 years.
If you had the struts adjusted to the maximum stiffness, I'd put my money on one of the struts; they can't handle that stiff of setting over a long period of time.
