RS4 Suspension Advice - Please

Basically my RS4 shocks are on the way out, it's bobbing about like a big boat !!!

It's always felt a bit soft, so i think they may have been shot when I bought the car.

Does the RS4 have a firm fide as standard ???

Should i go with standard dampers sourced from my local Audi dealer or go for some aftermarket shock/spring combination ????

ps - I don't do track days so don't want anything too extreme.

advice appreciated, thanks in advance.

cheers,

Probably best upgrading to the GmbH setup - this includes the rear ARB - there are a number of RS4 owners here who rate them - you might even find a set for sale on this board.

The GmbH kit is a small step in the right direction, but the fully adjustable stuff is the way to go IMHO. The KW v3 with the H&R ARBs seems really good for both road and track. Car is much more predictable in a slide/drift too :rocker:

I have a used GmbH kit for sale BTW.
