You need to make sure that it's the ones with the green stripes you get as replacements are they've all got different strengths with different colours.

Yeah I was thinking that, plus I would guess that having the 20" alloys on also means the springs are different?

Ordered from the nice people at A8 Parts

Local garage lined up to fit them and also replace one of the Lambda sensors that has decided to die on me.

All fitted today and I have a car that drives as it should, plus got the garage to change the rear pads at the same time.

That's two jobs off the list
