Hi all
S3 I have at the moment has Pro Sport coilers on the front and I am looking to replace all around with the H&R 25mm springs using the stock shock absorbers. I have a couple of questions with this...
At the moment I am hearing a knocking noise when I go down pretty much most bumps or holes. Possibly the top mount or drop links?
As it's only the front that is lowered at the moment (I believe to about 25mm as there is still some clearance) I will be going for the 25mm drop all around using the stock shock absorbers on the front and just changing springs on the back - thoughts on this? I know it's a performance car so the shocks aren't going to be completely useless, however, I am always interested in opinions or even experience. I rarely have people or anything in the back so the lowered rear won't be an issue load wise.
Finally; with a 25mm drop, if I am going to replace the drop links anyway - if that's what is causing the knock - are shortened drop links advisable or even required? I'm not looking to replace any of the roll bars just yet but eventually I will.
Thanks in advance all
