How much difference in height? Have you inspected the suspension? Could be a broken spring or other damaged suspension component.

About 1-2 cm difference.I looked everywhere but I couldn't see anything weird.Springs are OK but I think it is needed to be inspect very well

That's normal. Cars don't come perfectly level from the factory.

On top of that, it's virtually impossible to get an accurate ride height measurement unless your garage is perfectly level which; trust me, it is not.

Make sure the front lower forks are pushed all the way to the brake line mounting bracket on the struts. Check tire pressure and make sure all four tires are the same.

If you're really concerned about it, get coilovers and have them corner weighted and balanced. The ride heights wont be equal but it will be "correct" in terms of how the car handles.
