I know the kits from ECS tuning and understood well what you was talking about

Could you please say more about camber and the second important charachteristik (I don't know how is it in English). How the behaviour of the car changes with different compbinations of this 2 parameters?

What is a difference in shock mounting for the vehicles before and after 06.00? Because on ecs tuning they have to different billstein shock models for before 06.00 and after 07.00. But on awe tuning all shocks are the same. Personaly I have a 10.00 car.

And could you please explain what is Grooved Rear Shock Pair and Grooved Front Strut Pair.

Thank you in advance. Sorry for my bad english.

CR, do a little research man!!!

Here, read this: http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-suspension.htm

That tells you what everything means. Audi has no front camber adjustment, it actually does have slight adjustment in rear, but not much.

On the a4, camber is not a bad thing, it improves the handling a lot, and tire wear is minimal even without a camber kit. But, you would want to have it aligned once after a new suspension setup, just to get the toe in and all correct.

That I can't say you need to call them and give them your VIN # then they can tell you what class shock it is. But the Bilstiens did change at all its more with the lower perch plate thats the real iusse not the shock. Next the groved shock means you can adj the ride height when you install them...but you can't adj them after that unless you pop the whole strut out

coilovers are junk. like ^ said u gotta keep getting alignments if you want a proper setup but why? unless you live in the snow and jack the car up for the winter is about the only reason, or if its a show car and you like slamming the bitch down to the ground. I've dealt with lots and defintly can say the ride quality is much better with a solid lowering spring

Got my 07 A4 B7Quattroa couple of months ago, but it didn't come with sport suspension. I would really like to lower my car by about 1 inch. Anyone know if dealers can install the sport suspension and how much it will cost? Any other options, under waranty?
