I struggled to find a part number for the rear springs on my 8V 2014 S-Line that has S-Line suspension fitted.

But when I looked at the springs on the car, there were no paint marks that identified the type. I know they haven't been changed before because I've owned the car from new.

Sachs 627448780 are for both S3 and A3 (with S-Line suspension). Images attached showing old & new spring along with part number.
Hope this saves someone searching fruitlessly in the future.
