When they fail does the car bounce about? Mine is bottoming out all the time...I've got the interior light showing power to the switch at least :lol:

Guessing the electronic shocks are no good...

yes when they go you just bounce around on the springs,
time for some yellow Konis :) :)

Or a set from Intrax 8) If I had to do it over, I choose something else ;)

Has anyone taken the shocks apart to find out what breaks? Are they fixable?

What has everyone replaced theirs with? I'm struggling to find many manufacturers who cover the Q4, unless it's the same as other 155s....perhaps the V6 for similar weights?

I believe i posted here before that koni was stopping production of the koni yellow for the Q4... so only as long as supplies last...

Steve, try here for the shocks, not sure if they are Koni Yellow though (not sure what the yellow indicates)

Thanks Jack, are those prices for a pair or individuals?? If it's individual I might as well get the "job lot" with new springs....hopefully a pair as it's half the price :lol:

I'm getting more and more drawn to ordering the full set of Intrax, they quoted 1300euro so not cheap, but they are supposed to be good, Very good.
