Default Arnott and Audi Warranty

Would Audi replace a part with a non Audi part under Audi warranty at customers request?

I.e. Arnott Airbag.

I experienced the low rider this morning.

Default depends on the dealer...

Its somewhat like asking a dealer to put in K04s instead of K03 for a warranty repair. The driver pays the difference. But in the case of the Arnott springs, they cost less, so there is no incentive for the dealer.

You could buy them your self and ask the dealer to put them in but then you have no future Audi warranty. Its messy.

and you can probably get an independant shop to install them for far less than the dealer

Re: Why not just put in the Audi part while covered, switch later...
