I need urgent help,

My car has been off the road for 12 days now and need to get it back on the road.

I was in the process of replacing a front airbag, and will now have two new bags on the front as i recently replaced one. The problem i have is that i have found that i need to replace the front struts. i tried to order the blistein arnott assemblies but was informed that they have been discontinued.

Can anyone help with regards to where to source a decent set of front struts? I am based in the US.

You can try Ebay for a set of the Bilsteins. Have seen a few on there yet.

Another option is to replace with OEM shocks which IMHO are better. U.S. prices are stupid high, but you can get some from Germany here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161168008545...84.m1423.l2649 You'll need to check on shipping cost, but shouldn't be crazy bad.

Thanks for the info, shocks ordered and half the price of what they are going for out here.

Yes, the OE units from Audi are fine to use , 1 year warranty on them.

The Arnott Bilsteins being discontinued is good thing !! They were problematic from the get go.

There are many on-line places that offer wholesale pricing, like Carson Heter is a great parts-friend to the Audi community, Milburn Audi is good too, www.parts.com also has good prices.
