Crashing over potholes has stopped
Cross-referenced the OE number against my 2006 A6 C6 before ordering. The paint and plating look like they will survive a few winters of salt. Top mounts and bearings went on at the same time while it was apart. Result is the clonk over speed bumps that started this job has completely gone.

Car feels new again
Bought for a 2011 A4 B8. The rod is properly finished with no machining marks and the seal is clean. I fitted both sides together as you should, then had it aligned the same week. Result is the car no longer floats over crests and settles in one movement. Happy to recommend it.

Night and day difference
Went on my A4 B8.5 3.0 TFSI V6 at 94k miles. I torqued everything at ride height rather than with the suspension hanging. The paint and plating look like they will survive a few winters of salt. Result is the car no longer floats over crests and settles in one movement.
