Hey guys, my second upper left control arm just went. I also think i need a lower right control arm. Do u guys think that it will be getter to change all of them, I saw a kit on http://www.germanautoparts.com/Audi/A4/Suspension/60/1 it seems pretty cheat to all the other ones i seen online. Or should i just replace the two that are bad, b/c i replaced anoter one about a year ago. What do u guys think will be the best thing for me to do?
My rear-diff seals are also leaking do u guys have any advice on that ? should i just have a tech do it?
thanks for ur help

better off doing the whole kit... I did the meyhle kit from ecstuning.com and i never had another problem.... Prior to that, i was replacing them all the time with oem stuff which breaks very easily.

yea, audi control arm bushings suck... replace them in pairs at the least. since your in there

and rear diff... well. we remove the entire diff to replace the seals... a little more work, but at a great deal of ease
