why dont you want to go to the dealer? also each time i had the problem ( 4 times...) they changed both dampers.
i dont think the side matters, mine (1997) had this problem all the time on both sides, until they fixed it the last time (about two years ago)...

i do all the service checks exactly as recommended by ferrari. big ones every 20000km, belts every 3 years, plus frequent oil and filter-changes...
