Replacing Springs....advice.

halfcab · 07-07-2005, 05:46 AM

Hi,

-98' A4 Avant Quattro 19tdi-

After an MOT failure (cracked rear springs), I am reaplacing the full set of springs with 30mm lowerd items.

Could anyone give me advice as to any problems I may encounter doing the work involved. Or any special tools, other than spring compressors.

I'm pretty good with the spanners, having replaced all the front linkages (after seeing the Audi qoute!!)

Any comments fill be greatfully recieved!

Mark.
