Catégorie: Amortisseurs et suspension Audi A4

The Audi A4 covers five platform generations: B5 (chassis 8D, 1994–2001), B6 (8E, 2001–2005), B7 (8E, 2005–2008), B8 (8K, 2008–2015), and B9 (8W, 2015–present). Quattro and front-wheel-drive variants within the same generation use different rear shock configurations. Saloon and Avant estate bodies sometimes share struts but have different rear shock lengths. Your generation code appears on the data plate in the driver's door jamb.

How to choose

The Bilstein B4 is the standard choice for restoring the controlled, comfortable ride of a B7 or B8 A4 at high mileage. The B6 suits the driver who finds the A4 too relaxed at motorway speeds and wants a firmer, more direct response. Tein coilovers are popular for lowering the B6 and B7.
