Audi C6 2008 rear spring and front drop links replacement

Thanks it's my rear spring that's away, is that a front one?

They are pictures of the rear spring & shock mount, the front is completely different.... The drive shaft you see is because my car is quattro.

Haha thanks it was the drive shaft that flung me!

Ecp don't do the sline / lowered option springs any suggestions where to get them? Also are there any parts diagrams showing them online?

I ran into this with Audi. I was never able to find a aftermarket "sline" springs. In the end I went for a full Eibach B12 Pro kit, on both my Audi's as it was much cheaper than the sline shocks & springs. If you only need 2 springs and you don't want to change the rest then I would just get the parts from either Audi or TPS. However if the springs are dead then I cannot see the shocks being very good.

Sorry who is TPS? Is there anyone independent you could recommend for sensible priced parts - my nearest dealers are either Stirling or Glasgow!

Thanks, ok will take that into consideration re shocks - our road is terrible and have many many pot holes which I assume hasn't helped the spring!
