Rear coil springs

My 2008 Avant with 104000kms is sagging in the rear, my local mechanic had a look and said the "rear coil springs" need to be replaced (ressort arrière in French).

Apparently the DRC system, which was replaced in 2016 at around 80000kms, is working fine no leaks etc., so it's just the springs. But my mechanic can't find the parts and has suggested the to replace the whole system (including DRC) with coilovers. I'd obviously like to avoid replacing the whole system if only one part needs to be changed.

Does anyone have the reference to the rear springs, or know where I can find parts?

Thanks!!

Purchased a set direct from Audi last year no problem.

The rear springs tend to break at the tips and the car drops an inch or so.
