Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

I gave up using Edinburgh Audi for any work years ago. Perth Audi are much better but a bit of a long drive for me. Been using a small indy in Fife for years with no issues along with another in Edinburgh from time to time. Both have extensive knowledge of the B7 which for me is more important than...

Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

for me to buy the CRS kit i would have to know the valving in the actual shocks is changed from konis own part number-not just a shock set to someones idea of recommended setting[all be it probably well more qualified to set it up than myself] as they are available far cheaper elsewhere if this is so

Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

some weak points can be overcome by simple cost effective routine maintainance-ie pinch bolts caliper pins/heel plates.keeping brake discs clean inside-maintaining vacuum system,running premium fuel etc i think the drc would be kept by more folk if you could pressurise it cheaply after a repair loca...

Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

trouble with the drc is its not just the continually failing shocks,its the pipework and valves that can fail sadly they never got the reliability of the system sorted far more reliable to have normal shocks or coilovers-for the sporting driver the coilovers handle better anyway with better/adjustab...

Re: Replacing DRC Shocks

for drc replacement you can go koni or bilstein shocks and retain the frc springs[saves on labour at rear as only the shock gets changed] and is cheaper,retains standard height-the konis are adjustable but you cant adjust once fitted unless you mod the top of the turret about £600 ish for konis plus...
