034 Motorsport Lowering Springs Alignment
I had my springs installed here at a local euro shop but I took it to the dealership to get my alignment and they told me I have to get my sensor re-calibrated and keep in mind I don't have adaptive cruise control. I am assuming its the pre-sense sensors? Am I required to re-calibrate the sensors? The local shop here that installed my springs said it isn't required but I want to get some more info from people with the same experience to see if it is worth to get my sensors re-calibrated since its a whopping $750 at the stealership.

You don’t need to get any sensors recalibrated. Don’t take it to Audi after you’ve gotten your car lowered. Get alignment done at a garage outside. Audi is trying to milk you.
My presense works perfectly and my car has been lowered for almost two years on 034. Got alignment done at a shop outside for one tenth of what Audi wanted. Presense works the way it should and didn’t need any “recalibration”.

I am having the noise. I’ve read a bunch of people are having it with a thin and inconsistent way to mitigate without replacing with another brand.
I think that’s my plan. I like the idea of the adjustable springs (not coilovers). Fingers crossed
