OEMS are perfectly good enough.

Thanks for the help @NHN

Theres a parts request section at the top of the page where you should be able to order the mounts from

The RS3 ones are better and actually cheaper

Just a word of warning. When I ordered mine they didn't come with the bearings. Be sure to ask

Thanks all! Will the rs3 top mounts fit my shape s3 ?

Mine is a 2011 and they fit. As far as I know the suspension isn’t any different on the pre facelift models

can anyone tell me the symptoms of a failing top mount? why would you change them unless your refreshing the suspension anyway?

@scott_159 the symptom I has was a slight knocking when I went on the brakes or went over a speed bump - mainly noticed it as low speeds.

@J.Griff - there's genuine mounts currently for sale in the classifieds: http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/genuine-audi-s3-8p-top-mounts.344619/ - not sure if there is bearings though.

Sorry to bring this back up, I am having to replace front springs in my 2007 S3 so going to replace top mounts. Where is the best place to buy replacement see ECP have sales on. What make to look at?
Do you need to replace bearings at the same time?
