I recently changed all my springs on my avant and getting spring compressors in there is very difficult unless you use the more expensive compressor that fits through the spring. my way was to loosen the the 2 subframe bolts so it drops about 20-30mm, remove the level sensor to prevent damaging it, undo the top 2 shock bolts so its free, insert a long breaker bar between the chassis and lower arm. You use the bar as a lever to move the suspension lower. By levering it downwards you can manage to get the spring out along with its rubber mount. Use a 2nd person to lever it down whilst removing the spring if need be
