Frint Sping Needed Please

[Gordon Stewart]

Hi Folks, a front spring has broken on my wife’s 58 plate 1.8tfsi S Line so desperately need another one , I’m sure it’s the S Lune suspension springs , does anyone have one , Audi want £132 for one , here is a picture of the dot codes

The 4 coloured dots define what spring you have and need.

Post a request in the parts request section on the Forum here. Alternatively give your local TPS a call or *** Online on Facebook.

The trouble is you may need to replace both front as the unbroken side has been under tension for 11 years and may have settled a bit. So if you only replace one side it may sit a little lop sided.
Have you checked on ECP?
I just looked and a pair of Sachs springs for my S3 were just under £100 using a discount voucher code.

problem is you cant get aftermarket sline springs, e catalogues from sachs etc specifically mention 'not for sline'. so you have to get them from the likes of tps or *** (who compared to dealers/tps are very good, but compared to the aftermarket, even oem brands, the price is outrageous).

eibach pro kit can be had for around £130 for all 4 springs, and will match sline springs for ride height. personally thats the route id go.
make sure to also do the top mount bearings while youre changing the springs.

Please do not replace one spring, do them as a matched pair.
