Wheel size and tyre make, model and pressure can make a big difference. Also for some aftermarket suspension arms the bushes transfer more shock than OEM so could be that if they have been changed. Not sure if track rod ends for D3 have rubber inserts but on D2 and C5 they do and it makes noticeable difference if using aftermarket solid TREs without rubber insert.

I happened to go over some speed bumps (slow speed) and it honestly felt like shocker was bottoming out, huge bang. Or maybe it is incredibly hard at lower speeds??
Bushes look ok, I have ordered new drop links but I'm very certain it isn't that.
If I remove the assembly, any way of testing the shock absorbers? Wouldn't want to spend £700 unnecessarily.
