Red face bumpy ride--worn suspension for Audi A3?

I just got new tires, and everything's ok but the ride feels bumpy. How much is getting inspection at local dealer for worn suspension? And how much for labor and parts if it has to have new suspension, please? Thanks Also, teaching me about specific suspension parts is helpful.

Ummm...you posted your inquiry in the wrong section, but I'll attempt to field it anyway.

Exactly what tires did you have installed on your A3(ie: Make/Model/Size/Load & Speed Rating)? FWD or Quattro? How many miles?

If you had "extra load" tires installed, you're most likely going to experience a harsher ride.

Why are you asking that question on the A6 forum?

Continental tires and 25k. The dealer said that the stiff ride is normal, maybe pressure too high, will soften oveer time. Thanks for answering.
