Car feels new again
Replacement for my 2024 A4 B9 3.0 TFSI V6. The rod is properly finished with no machining marks and the seal is clean. I torqued everything at ride height rather than with the suspension hanging. Result is the car no longer floats over crests and settles in one movement.

One weeped, the other is fine
Cross-referenced the OE number against my 2019 A6 C8 before ordering. The garage did the pair and the alignment came back within spec straight away. One unit was visibly weeping oil down the body within a few weeks. That said, sharp expansion joints no longer send a bang through the cabin. Would still buy it again.

Crashing over potholes has stopped
My A6 C7 needed this doing at 134k miles. The garage did the pair and the alignment came back within spec straight away. The rod is properly finished with no machining marks and the seal is clean. Result is the clonk over speed bumps that started this job has completely gone. Happy to recommend it.

Leaked within a month
Second one of these I have bought, this time for the TT 8S. One unit was visibly weeping oil down the body within a few weeks. Would not order the same one again.
