Suspension Is your ride slammed to the ground? Did you lift it so high you need a ladder to get in? Step in and let's talk about it.

Question Lowering A4 B5


Ok so I had all my front control arms replaced and used Solowerks coilovers . The same day the shop I used also busted my cv axle fixed that and drove it out to my friends to raise it up some because it had 16s and I told them I had 17s coming. ANYway raised it and put my 17s on. Drove it home and parked it . Next day Im driving and hear rattling and clanging . Took it to my friends put it on a lift andf found they didnt tighten so many of the nuts on the control arms , got that taken care of for a minute but now i have some of the same clanging and wobble on the replaced axle side. Could it really be too much for that axle and ''Stretching" it?

Maybe your CV joints are going bad.

My car is lowered also. I had an alignment after installing the lowering springs and bilstein shocks. Ride is very smooth.
