Probably too much of a ride for you dude. If you don't go to the dealer, you have to verify that the shop you use has the right kind of tool to align Quattro drivetrains. I can't remember the name of the tool though. . .

Default What about ...

if my car was originally a non-sport but now it has Bilstein shocks, Neuspeed sport springs and a Neuspeed rear sway? I'm a little concerned because the shop that did the original alignment used the code on the door jam (I think that's where it was) to set up his alignment machine. But that's for a non-sport. How do I get him to optimize my alignment for the new suspension?

Default Should've gotten

alignment specs with your springs. Though that didn't work when Meineke tried it with my Eibach specs. . .
