Audi A3 Sport Suspension Too Hard

I have looked at the german and french audi web sites and both mention that.

Audi a3 sport suspension too hard. I currently have an a3 s line and i find the suspension ride too hard. Hence i was looking for a damper spring change that might maintain the lowered ride yet provide a softer set up over the bumps and poor roads. For this reason audi has chosen not to meddle too much with it instead. Which is the best model for him.

I know it might sound unusual but on my wife s 07 a3 2 0tdi 170 dsg s line i ve found the suspension too hard when going over irish potholes. While the audi a3 is one remarkable car the stock suspension is a compromise leaving something to be desired for those who want sportier handling characteristics. This article applies to the audi a3 8p and 8v 2004 2016. The sport suspensions are 15mm lower than the standard suspensions.

Reader wants to buy a secondhand audi a3 but is confused by the different suspension options. S line suspension is a hard ride at times especially over pot holes. I would say the suspension is pretty good in terms of handling in the dry however in the wet it s a different story my a3 is a tdi and therefore is front end heavy and in the wet you can get a fair amount of under steer when giving it some licks into or around a roundabout corner. Pick the best engine and compare performance with similar cars.

This is the latest audi a3 saloon a four door junior executive car that proved very successful in its last outing. I had an audi a3 with sports suspension and while i agree the ride was very hard it wasn t until i drove an a3 with standard suspension that i realized how soft and floaty the ordinary car is. I am looking at 2014 s line cars with the 1 8 petrol with their 15mm drop or the newer facelift sport models with the 2 0 190 ps engine that have their dynamic comfort suspension with no drop.
