Hi All,

Car is now away having head lamps fixed but when I drove car from Audi dealer who have just replaced a DRC rear shock to the lamp repairer, the ride seems to be rock hard. Any ideas what might have caused this?

Kind Regards

1. What setting is it on? Sport is so stupidly hard you'd think that the axles had been bolted directly to the body.
2. When discharging and recharging the DRC the setting should be set to 'comfort'. There's always the chance that a technician didn't know (or didn't read the instructions).
Mind you, a properly charged system can feel quite firm if you've been driving a faulty one for a while.

Thanks. It will be returned to Audi once it's Trups headlamp repairs so we'll see what happens.
