Default They fail 'cause someone "cocked" it when they were installed......

If you look at a bad one, it's bent in the middle. Gotta push them in/on straight

Default If you do please make sure mine gets fixed right.

I have the black A4 with non-sport shocks and 15's. My service consultant is Brad. Thanks for all your help : )
