Hi .
Just fitted 2 B5 spring cups to my 2007 2.0T FSi Quattro Avant and it sits a lot better now. I re used the rubber lower spring seats of the other cups but they are not a perfect fit into the B5 cup.
My question to anybody who has also done this mod is did you also re use this part or did you use the B5 rubber and if you did does
the spring locate correctly in the B5 rubber.
Thanks for any help.
 
before and after photos?

Sorry no pictures as was battling to get this done in a dry spell outside, but I'm sure if you do a search there are plenty to be found on the internet of before and after, in fact think i've seen some on Audizine.
 
Does this mod affect the wheel alignment?

Personally I don't think so because of the way the suspension is designed. Others have said that they not had alignment checked and tyre wear was not affected. The only adjustment is toe in/out. There is no castor or camber adjustment apart from centralising subframe to even up camber on both sides. As I said this is my opinion, best to check with specialist.
