Suspension Arm Supplier
Had the A8 on the ramp several weeks ago and noticed a couple of the lower arms are almost on their way out.
I thought I would try to find a decent supplier of MyeleHD arms in preparation for when they need replacing. Has anyone got found a good supplier for MyeleHD arms? I'm no longer in communication with the company that sorted me out last time.

I used these guys when I bought my upper arms - delivery was a bit slow as stock came from Germany but they were the cheapest at the time (2012)
http://carpartscentreuk.co.uk/ These guys are generally quicker to ship but a bit pricier - helps to have the Audi part numbers to search for the correct Meyle HD numbers, and to check if any full kits they might do actually cover everything you need http://www.allgermanparts.co.uk/

Scott, have you considered Lemforder arms??
I was going for Meyle HD, but then after talking to few people in here and then with few people in the industry I went with Lemforder arms. Lemforder is the OEM supplier and as expected my arms arrived with audi rings grind off for less £££ I got them from Mister Auto as recommended by Neil and I found this supplier to be very good

Lemforder is an idea.
But I've not dealt with Lemforder before, only ever used MeyleHD arms and been impressed. They covered 50k miles in my A4 in 3 years without any issues or signs of wearing out. I can't seem to find a Meyle kit for the A8 D3, found a D2 kit though. M-A8, where did you get yours from? Was it a complete kit of every arm, nut and bolt needed?

I found it easiest to ring All German Parts to find out if there's a full kit - you will then need to check that the full kit actually includes all the bits you need, as some may be non-Sport spec etc.
Worth a visit to TPS as well to ask them to print you off the correct Audi part numbers for your exact vehicle VIN and use those to cross reference part numbers - takes the guesswork out of it

From here Scott
http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/audi...and-suspension I did not get the kit as I needed only all four front upper suspension arms. Sort each category by Lemforder and see if they have all what you need Marcin
