The last thing on the list, info please

[Jimbo]

Ok since I bought the 8 over 3 months ago iv been sorting little things out that have been neglected over the years.

The advisory on the last mot was corrosion on the rear subframe!

Can some one let me know the best place to look or the most common places that they rust on the subframe? Photos if poss?

Or will it be very Obvious?

It's a 2wd a8 if that makes any difference,

Thanks for any info you can give me

I too had an advisory about rust on the subframe, front one in my case.
They said it wasn't too bad, but when I took it to MRC to get a set of new shocks and springs, the front subframe was holed and not in a good state, so I had it replaced with a brand new one.
Best thing is to get under there and have a look yourself, if its really bad you could ask A8 Parts if they have one which is not badly rusted. Used subframes are very cheap, around £100?

Just waiting for one of the ramps at work to come free, then I can have a good look under the whole car for the first time
