Can anyone help?
I am a new member and I am extremely happy that I have found others like me that like there A2
I have an Audi a2 2004 petrol model. 1.4 Chassis no WHUZZZ8Z13NO20265 The wheels I have on are RS4's 17 Inch 205 x 14. I recently purchased a lowering kit from Jamex. The kit contained coil over spring kit. The kit contains 4 springs and 4 shock absorbers. The front shock absorbers are adjustable on the shocker and the rear adjustable under the spring. I purchased them from racing dynamics after 1 week of trying to fit them; I found that the front simply would not lower. When I fitted the front shock absorbers and springs and took the car off the jacks, the anti roll bar was hitting hard on the drive shafts so therefore it wasn't possible to lower the front. I contacted the Jamex main dealer and was told by the engineer that the coil set would not fit an Audi a2 '04 as the suspension on the Audi a2 was changed. I contacted Stafford Audi as far as they where concerned the suspension is the same on an Audi 2000 right through to 2005. I told the retailer and he said to return the set and he would return the money. I had to refit my audi suspension back. Does anyone know if I can lower an Audi A2 and if so what suspension kit would I need, as my own view is that it can not be done because the anti-roll bar hits the front drive shafts and as far as I can see you need to change the stabilising bars that attach to the anti roll bar and the shock absorber. I would really appreciate if someone has experienced similar problems and what the solution is.
