Really sorry if this has already been explained. I'm having problems with my Drc so I've ordered a set of H&R coilovers. Is this a simple change over or do I need to have the ecu adjusted or buy some extra kit?
Thanks Gareth

DRC is 100% mechanical, there is no ECU :bigblink:

Thanks for your reply. I take it you just disconnect the pipes from the shock and forget about them?

Someone who has replaced DRC will have to answer that, I'm still running DRC.

I just love the assumption that DRC is connected to the (electronic) diagnostics - you're not the first person to make that assumption (and won't be the last I suspect).

I just wandered as I seen on a dealers website about a "DRC cancel kit". My mechanic is working at the car now so ill update this shortly. This is the site i seen it on. http://www.awesomegti.com/car/audi/rs4b ... pe-qb6-4wd

Exactly that, leave it all intact just disconnect the shocks from the system and leave in situ..
