    Hi.Been trying to decide on new suspension for a while,thought I’d made my mind up on eibach sportline kit but now swaying to some decent coilovers.Do you guys do any like the bc racing ones.I don’t want ride height effecting damper travel And I want a degree of damper adjust
    Thanks

    Hi mate
    Youv just been recommended on a thread as the go to guy for suspension.
    I’m looking to upgrade my s3 8L and was thinking of the bilstein/eibach kit. I have had coil overs in the past and found them to be too firm for everyday driving. Would you recomend the b12 kit or is there an alternative out there ? Prices would be great, including delivery to cambridgeshire
    Thanks

    Hi Damien
    I’ve been doing somereading up and I’m baffled !
    I don’t want the hard bouncy ride I’ve had before so I assumed shocks and springs was the ideal? I appreciate your comments previously with eibach/bilstein b12 kit and koni kit. Is the b12 the superior kit and worth the money or are they much of the same ?
    Also a lot of people are saying they don’t lower by as much as they state ?
    Thanks again
    Adrian

    Back when I had an S3 8L I ran the B12 kit and the ride and handling was superb but the lowering was subtle. How low are you looking to go?

    If you want to keep the Sportline springs yes. How much play is there when everything is tightened and clamped up?

    If I remember correctly I would say just under an inch?

    You could try the Pro springs but personally I'd still say shortened dampers will be your best option.

    Hello, hope you're well. I'm looking to lower the front of my 2016 S3 8V using the eibach kit. Do you sell this?

    Cheers.

    Hi mate, I’m looking at buying a C7 A6 SE, and would like to drop the suspension to S-Line ride height - or a touch lower. But not too low, I like the OEM look. What would you recommend? Also, I would like to fit some aftermarket RS6 20” alloys, can you recommend anywhere to get them?

    Thank you, James

    The EIbach Pro springs are probably going to be the best option for what you're wanting.

    Hi its the usual I guess lol, have a 2011 audi. A3 black edition, it's on standard 18" rotas but want it lowered only using springs. I'm guessing it's lower than normal a3s and heard people saying I need 45 to 50mm drop on the springs...

    Hi, I was wondering if you could help me find the part number for A4 DTM front springs? I bought Suplexes with part number 8E0411105EJ (S Line, I think) before but they seem too bouncy and not stiff as I expected.

    Hi Damian,,i´ll traveling to Germany next month. I i need to buy a set of coilovers for my A3 2.0 TFSI Sportback stage 3. actually i´ve OEM shocks with Eibach sportlines,. I´m looking for a coilover to use as a daily and track, between AP and Vogtlands wich is better for my use? and how much the cost of one of this sets shipped to Berlin. ( do you have Tax free option? )
    Thanks
    DPM
    DPM
    Morning, thank you for your post. I'd say the AP is the more popular option but for me the Vogtland kit just edges it on quality. Are you wanting to purchase the kit when you're in the UK or when you're in Germany?

    Hi Damian
    I'm looking to make my A4 (B7) 2WD 2.0T ride less crashy as the ride quality is back breaking. After reviewing your historic posts, I notice you recommend the B12 Prokit more often. I'm happy with my current S Line height but don't mind a slight drop, if I take the B12 option would it improve ride quality whilst retaining the handling?
    And, how much would it cost? what else provided in the kit?
    Thanks
    DPM
    DPM
    Afternoon,
    Thank you for your message.
    Yes the B12 kit is definitely one of the best options out there for a combination of handling improvement and ride with a superb build quality. The kit includes front and rear Bilstein B8 dampers with the Eibach Pro kit springs.

    cool :) as the current setup is an S Line, will i be needed to trim any of the bump stops or will the original OEM bump stops be sufficient. If they need trimming, how much does it need to be trimmed?
    DPM
    DPM
    The front B8 dampers have built in bump stops, the rear bump stops shouldn't need trimming.

    Hi
    My Alpina B3 biturbo is fitted with Bilstein suspension - developed by Birds BMW with Bilstein. This is very good, giving a compliant ride + good handling, far better than stock.
    I am considering an A5 3.0 tdi quattro instead but I found the (car) low speed bump compliance a bit firm.
    Can you suggest a kit that would improve the compliance but retain decent handling?....Bilstein B12 or other?
    Cheers
    Martin

    Morning,
    If budget allows then I'd say the Bilstein B12 Pro kit is by far the best option in terms of handling and build quality closely followed by the H&R Cup kit. If you want something a little more comfortable then the ST kit is worth considering.

    Thanks for your reply. So, the B12 kit will give a less harsh and more compliant ride than the standard sport and/or s-line set-up?
    DPM

    I find it does yes. To me the Audi Sport and S-Line suspension is just stiff, not refined at all.

    Hey there, I hear you're the person to go to!
    I have a 2004, 1.6 A3, looking at coilovers, potentially lowering max of 100mm, any recommendations? Budget around £350 tops, although could probably stretch to £400 if they would be the world better.

    hi damian....

    next week im going to be buying some coilovers for my AMK S3. Just wondering what you would recommend.....

    at the moment its a toss up between AP and Apex RDX's. I know the apexs are slightly more, but i don't know if that means they are better....
    what are the prices would you do on each of these?

    Regards.........
    DPM

    Afternoon,
    Thank you for your post.
    Very similar kits to be honest, I'd say the AP are the more popular option and offer a slightly better ride where as the Apex have a slightly better build quality.
    AP - £415
    Apex - £462

    Hi Damian - your thought and ideas on suspension mods for my A4 2.0 Tfsi S Line Avant Quattro Special Edition 107K miles. Has the S Line Special Edition 18" wheels
    Currently on standard S Line springs & dampers and suffers from the typical stance issue on quite a few S Line Avants. The rear springs have settled and looks about right, the front sits a good 30mm too high. Gary

    Hi Damian, I've recently bought an a3 1.6 petrol and looking to lower it about 40-50mm, not really wanting to spend much more than £300-£350. Just wondering if you could tell me what your best options would be within my budget?

    Coilovers are height adjustable where as a springs and shocks kit will give you a set drop.

    Ok, well which coilovers would you suggest for that sort of budget?

    For the lower end something like the JOM at £185 or the Prosport at £219 and at the higher end the V-Maxx at £370.

    Forgot to mention Damian its had the S3 facelift conversion done on the car it has the 18" rotor arm replicas 18X8.0J offset 45.Would like it to sit low as the s3 or little bit lower. with a good comfortable ride without the bounce when driving.Regards

    With that mileage I'd say you'd be best off changing both the shocks and springs so for within your budget one of our budget coilover kits may be your best option.

    Hi Damian recently purchased a3 tdi sline 170 3 door FWD. The problem i have it sits too high when i look at other s lines they sit lower !!. the suspension is very bouncy when driving even on level roads like a bouncy castle. I feel the setup fitted to the car may not be s line set up !!. Can you please tell the best option to lower the car front and back also having a comfortable ride and not bouncy ?thanks
