Default Just had two rear shocks replaced at Bellavia audi. Great service!

Quick info:
My left rear was leakin at 7k. (Don't drive to aggressively in the cold season folks. The seals dont like this)
I replaced that myself along with the eurospec springs at 13k.

17k and the right rear is soft. (did the "bounce test").

Scheduled an appointment to have the shock replaced. Turns out that the mechanic (damn, should have gotten his name) Suggested that <b>both</b> rear shocks be replaced.

Of course I concurred.

The A4 is happy again.<p>Nick N.

Default Nick.. You missed a great meet .....

Thought you might show. I wanted to show your car to Raj (RKA). We were talking about waxes/polish. He also has a silver A4. Just about everyone's cars were looking good. BUT, those Hibiscus Red ones, man, they really stand out...

Default Argh...(banging head on monitor)

I know. I know.

I had an immediate family issue that I had to tend to that morning. Believe me..I really wanted to make it.

I dont even want to say I'll make it to the next one, even though I will. <p>Nick N.
