The left side doesnt move, but the right side does. I'm almost positive they aren't supposed to move. Im just wondering if it is ok or if i need to replace it. If I do need to replace it what is it called?

Its perfectly fine for it to spin. As long as it doesnt move front to rear you have nothing to worry about.

Haha i don't there suppose to spin, atleast mine on the A4 never spun. They arent shock absorbers either, they are there to keep you alive.

The two on the front of my car are solid, they don't move, at least without the rest of the car following them.
