Default Sagging Springs on 2000

I replaced the strut mounts, struts, shocks, and bushings last year and now it seems like the springs are sagging. When going over bumps it is bottoming out when it did not do it before. Has anyone else had this problem before and is the S80 prone to doing this? Thanks in advance.

We (the dealer on extended war) have replaced bushings or something that wears out in the strut assy a couple of times and the last time something was broken- but it always made a lot of noise. I noticed it by lifting the hood and bouncing the front end by hand and watching the excessive play at the top of the strut. This could feel like it was bottoming out.
