I have a 2012 A8L Quattro and noticed in the MMI under suspension- towing it has anon and off choice. It was on ?..shouldn’t this be off if I’m not towing

Hi did you ever get to the bottom of your suspension issue . I have exactly the same issues

Same here, I'd be interested to know if you made your ride any better

To be clear, after this title, within 2 years, I replaced the front stabilizers with the plastic ones from the lemforder (it was better, I noticed), and replaced the other parts I marked (of course, with the recommendations of the masters, usually the left side).

The comfort of the car is good now, the only problem is that there was a lot of trim rattle noise, which gives the feeling of bad suspension, but I found the source of the noise. I noticed the screens of the rear entertainment system, After removing the screens of the rear entertainment system and the plastic on them, the comfort made a difference.

I have winter tires on now, the comfort level of soft rubber tires is better than in summer.

I think it would be much more comfortable if I used a smaller tire instead of 20".

Thank you for getting back to us. I currently don't have any rattles or noises over bumps and when driving in general, it just feels stiff over any road imperfection. I'm not sure which part of what you replaced would be the problem, as surely the shocks themselves do that task.

Unfortunately, the reaction can be very different depending on the structure of the road and imperfections.

For example, in my country, a wear layer is not applied to asphalt. Asphalt is made from thick stones and this is very noisy and defects on such roads are reflected very harshly in the interior of the vehicle.

There is a wear layer on some roads (thin stony asphalt). On these roads, the car moves silently and smoothly, as it like flying.

Unfortunately, it is very disturbing on the concrete highway, every joint transmits sound into the vehicle (tak, tak).

My vehicle is 20" tire i guess its very effective on comfort quality.
