order they did for another DRC replacement just recently to make sure they're replacing it with the right parts with the "b" designation. Guess how much Audi pay for replacing our beloved DRC?.... $6,800 something. 'just thought of posting this...

Default Price probably depends on how many shocks are replaced....

Both of my fronts were replaced at the same time as having the intake manifold replaced and the total bill to Audi was about $5,000 I think.

the front shocks and the valve (i think the valve alone cost $745). the price includes the labor.

So they would save in the long run if they offered STaSIS as an option to DRC replacement.

Default I had all 4 shocks and 2 central accumulators replaced: dealer stated $4.5K in parts alone!

Of course labor was at least another 1/2 of that, so the $6.5K is right!

Not my first replacement either, so I am certainly 'sticking' it to AofA... Wish they just give us the funds for the Stasis kit...

Default Yeah, I got call today and they told me that all 4 shocks are going to be replaced. It should be

ready by Thursday or Friday. Maybe Monday I'll have them install Stasis...just to **** of Audi for spending that much out for nothing.
