Maybe someone has asked this question already, but I wanted to know if I purchased the S6 suspension for my year would it fit on my car? Also would it help the handling of my car? I have a 2003 A6 3.0L Quattro.

Thank you for your help

Not exactly sure, but assuming the S6 has a larger engine than the 3.0 (I'm sure it does) then the front will possibly sit higher than your current setup. Springs are made considering the weight of the engine.
