Hi

I had my Audi A4 (2003) serviced at the weekend (£199 deal) and Audi have advised that the anti-roll bar links are worn.

The car has done 86,000 so can understand this but they wanted £200 to change them which is expensive when the parts are £15 each

Question please...how easy is it to change these as a DIY job? Do I need any specialist tools? I've searched but can't find anything on the internet that shows me any detail

Thanks
CM
