A6 C7 Avant Suspension Lift

[Tom207]

Hi all,

New member here - hello!

I’ve got a 2012 A6 C7 Avant, which is brilliant. However, every now and then I could do with a little extra road clearance. I’m toying with the idea of selling it and getting an Allroad, but then I came across these:

They look similar to these - https://www.forgemotorsportoverland.com/products/audi-porsche-lift-kits-a4-a5-a6-allroad-a7-q6-and-macan

 

Has anyone fitted anything like this? If so, did you encounter any issues afterwards? A more mechanically minded friend suggested it might work but the camber of the tyres and also the driveshaft would have to be checked.

Cheers,

 

Tom

Edit: it’s an S-Line, if that makes a difference!

Hi don't bother with the expensive gizmos as it will only make the handling wayward, invest in a set of standard Avant springs as I believe the S Line is 25-30mm lowered from the factory, you will have to get it re aligned on a HUNTER four wheel tracking machine, change the front and rear springs otherwise it will dive at the front when braking.

I too had been looking at these lift BL cks for my a6 c5. Haven't tried them though.
