Suspension set up on FWD A4

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (afour)

I was wondering why you are getting new suspension in the front? Stock rides very smooth. Why not save the money and get a sway bar or two?

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (CanaDN)

if they make it for a passat, I'm pretty sure they make it for an A4

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (what)

I heard they have replacement suspension, is this what you are talking about? If so, is it done by the dealership and how much is it?

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (CanaDN)

I'm ordering rims soon also so i wanted to do springs/shocks now too. How much of a drop is it with H&R sport if I already have the stock sport suspension? Is there a set of coilovers that I can get for under $850 during a group buy or something? Thanks

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (afour)

they didnt have the race springs when I was lookin and i opted to go for the bilstein/neuspeed sport setup- Unfortunately it didnt drop it nearly what I expected. the ride was good but I purchased H&R coils and got the drop i wanted- I would suggest those. Cost though is obviously more

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (ck)

how much did u pay for the coilovers?

Re: Suspension set up on FWD A4 (afour)

paid about $1300 - I ordered them from the tirerack cuz i got tires at the same time but awe also has them:

I found that they "creak" a bit but lowered the car nicely- just gotta watch out for the speedbumps now
