Argh ... Major R8 issue

[rumatt]

I googled "Audi R8 shocks problem" and this was one of the first hits.

I can't see giving the dealer that kind of money for something that failed... just to have it fail again in another 10K miles. No way.

I hope they cover it for you.

Replacing Leaking Audi R8 OEM Shocks With SCALE Alpine Series

One common problem with the Audi R8 is the magnetic ride shocks leaking prematurely with mileages as low as 8000 miles. The replacement cost from the dealership is overpriced at approximately $8900 USD for four OEM shocks. Instead of replacing one or the entire set and deal with imminent failure again, the most logical solution is to upgrade the entire suspension with a high-performance coil over kit such as our alpine series with 2 years warranty and high-quality components. Also, we can rebuild this suspension in the future if needed.

The price for this kit is approximately 1/6th of the dealerships pricing. We did some tests on the track and the suspension is very impressive. You can adjust the dampening with the knob and control the rebound of the suspension. We can also add a custom spring rate that can ride like the OEM suspension or stiffer.
