        Need help for new shocks!

        I never learnt how to write , if it is shocks or shoks....
        But never mind I know you ll understand

        Well my daily drive is a Audi A4 Avant and the shocks are dead so I went to some places to see the prieces including to Audi.

        Audi asked me 630€ for the 4 and the instalation...
        (probably sachs shocks)
        In another store the Koni shocks were at 514€ already with instalation!
        In the same store they had the Koni Sport for 549€...
        The recepcionist told me the Koni "standard" were better then the Sport but she did not tell me why...only that the sport where probably too hard!

        I need advice on this fast!!!

        And is there any other brand of shocks I should look at?

        I don't know what kind of shocks for your Audi but check out these forums:

        Audi Life
        VW Vortex
        RS6 Club

        Although the RS6 club is for the Audi RS6, I am sure some one will know about the A4.

        Hope that helps.

        Please!!!!!

        I need to make a decision!

        Koni "normal" or Koni Sport?

        Probably I should make a poll but...

        Help me!
