Just had my front passenger-side suspension spring go - 1 coil has sheared off and the rest of it is wrapped around the post/rests /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
Luckily I was doing nothing more hairy than dawdle through city traffic to get to the petrol station when it whent BOING! as I exited a round-about (doing 20mph!) and not doing 70mph on a wet rush-hour motorway.
Anyhoo, I'm rather a bit dissapointed that the spring has failed after a mere 23K / 4 years of moderate(!) driving; it's a "weekend" car /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
I've owned my beloved S3 since new and have lavished more care and attention on it that is judged to be healthy by my friends and family, so it's hardly a case of it being the result of abuse and/or neglect.
Any suggestions on where I can get it replaced cheaply & professionaly in the Bristol/Bath area, and whether it's worth writing a letter to Audi UK to complain?
Cheers,
Mark.
