Suspension

[BobCoombs]

Morning. New to the site so here goes.... I have an A5 3.0tdi Quattro Cabriolet... cars done 45000 miles & half the suspension bushes are worn. I’m looking at upgrading to polyurethane but only Powerflex list them for the A5 at £1350! Does anyone know either somewhere cheaper or which other Audi models share the same suspension  as I can find poly bushes much cheaper for all models except the A5..typical !

thanks folks

Welcome to the forum Bob, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) 

Wow those bushes are expensive! 

The original a5 was based on the a4 b8 platform and I would not be surprised if the bushes fit. 

Cheers

Hi Steve

thanks for the welcome & the info, I,ll cross reference the parts as I can get the polybushes for the A4 B8 at almost 10% of the Powerflex price :)
