Have both an A8 (D2) and A4(B6) with MoTs looming and clonking front suspensions. It's not the ARB droplinks.....

This means messing with the stupidly over-complex, maintenance hostile front-end of both cars.

While it's vaguely tempting to apply the scatter gun approach and replace the lot, to do so (with decent quality parts at least) is uneconomic. Makes more financial sense to call the knacker and buy a Honda instead.

So I need to try and find the sources of the clonks, which previous experience has shown to be tricky without the MoT man's shaker.

Any pointers? - are there some which typically fail first or are known "clonkers"?

Thanks

Nick
