replacement rear shocks

Post by DuncS3 » Wed Apr 16, 2003 2:52 pm

My car is having new rear shocks fitted today under warranty - would my car need to have wheel alignment done because of this or is this not necessary for this type of work?

Anyone know?

Not strictly necessary, but a proper 4 wheel alignment is a good investment for all cars.

according to my erwin audi A3/S3 manual, you don't need 4 wheel alignment if replacing shocks.
M3 CSL - Silver Grey, a few options.
