they said it was the air suspension, to they replaced the whole thing, or at least the air shocks or whatever they're called

damn i need to take mine in to see if they will replace mine also...it only happens on certain bumps at slow speeds so its kind of hard to replicate...however i do constantly get a squishing sound like rubber against metal rubbing sound.

just dont know why such an expensive car has those issues lol, but every manufacturer seems to have some kind of issues i cant believe they have.

trust me, happens all the time. My BMW 750 was in the shop for a transmission issue 5 times before they figured out it was a guibo, whatever a guibo is. I bought my A8 used, so I have no idea how it was driven. I've had front suspension work done twice and before this fix, had something replaced on the rear axle, so I might have hit something hard and not really realized it causing damage
