    So I bought front and back dampers bilstein b6 for my audi a3 8v 2.0 tdi sportback. But acting like a fool didn't noticed some things. So the back dampers was okay fitted everything fine. The front doesn't fit because they are bigger (55mm) and as I understand my car can take 50mm . So the...

    S3 8p shocks options

    Mates anyone who already re-new the shocks with aftermarket options using oem springs? I'm concerned since there's no bunch of options for S3 8p rather than normal A3 but suspensión height and piston rods are different. Oem shocks are so expensive and being sold only with Audi dealership...

    Unstable rear end S3/8v saloon

    hi all, maybe a bit paranoid but I wanted your thoughts on the following: Lately I’ve found that the rear end of the car feels a bit loose or ‘un-damped’. This is especially obvious when riding over even slightly uneven manhole covers etc. This mainly affects the left rear wheel and the rear of...

    S3 front shocks on A3?

    Pretty much what it says on the tin, will the S3 front shocks fit on my A3 1.6? If so will it affect ride height and do you just use normal top mounts or does an s3 have different ones?
