    I have just replaced my springs from lowered to standard, and would like to check the ride height, it does look a bit high at the front,

    Would anyone be so kind as to measure their standard A4 TDI saloon 97 from ground to center of the wing on all four corners?

    I know it's not very technical but if we are talking 50 mm difference i have a problem.

    cheers

    i have a 96 diesel and mine is riding high at the front so i would like an answer as well
    i have just measured mine,i have different measurements from the left to right sides,all measurements taken to the centre of each arch to the floor,my car is running in 16 inch wheels
    rh front 695mm
    lh front 708mm
    rh rear 648mm
    lh rear 662mm
    i do have tools,a sub and amp and a jack so the rear measurements may be slightly lower than it should be

    I got:

    LR 695 _______ LF 685
    ----------------------------->
    RR 695 _______ RF 685

    +/- 3mm

    Half a tank of diesel and empty boot, car has been out today and rested for a few hours.
    Actually looks like it has dropped a bit on the front now. What a difference its made to the drive now tho, hardly any rattles and feels a lot less twitchy at higher speed now. well pleased.
