A6 2.7t Suspension Help Please

Is it so complicated due to the 4 sprung duck technique used by Audi ;o)

Are those the codes you are requiring?

Your car has sports suspension - code 1BE and weight code 0JK. So I think this is the right spring...

8D0 411 105 AB

you can check on your existing springs by looking at the paint marks - there should be 1 yellow and 3 violet.

thanks, however, that colour code is on a TDi spring I have, mine has 1 yellow and 1 violet. I got a new spring based on my reg number and put it on, however, it is now sitting an inch lower than before.. The car does have monster disks and what appear to be 4 pot callipers with what looks like 4 pads????

One yellow and one violet is listed as 8D0 411 105 T - for cars with sports suspension (which yours does) and weight code 0JH - but yours is 0JK.

There is actually a variation on chassis number: AB >> 4B-Y-094 500 and FJ 4B-Y-094 501 >>

The plot thickens.. What on average would be the gap between arch and tyre with my configuration (standard wheel) as on the new spring it is barely 1 finger and on the original it is almost 3 fingers, not very technical I know but it's raining and windy outside..
