I notice on my 08 A4 with s-line and titanium that the car is a lot lower in the back than in the front. Is this normal?

Hi, How did you get on with this ??

My car is approaching end of warrenty and I'm sure the rear has sagged more than it used to be. (2005 Sline Sports Suspension @ 40,000kms...). Oh well - if Audi won't address it then it's a great excuse for some PSS9s [:)]

Higher front = slightly more understeer. I'm guessing that's for safety reasons? Although it can be argued that a higher front is sometimes more beneficial in suspension tuning for low-speed/tighter corners.

Everybody likes pics.,.... Post a side shot. Assuming factory springs. How much sag do you think you got from New to now?

My BMW 330CI had it to, but BMW hid it with 225/45-17 in the front and 225/40-17's in the back. Once I put on 40 series tires on all the wheels it really brought out the reverse rake. I cured both with PSS9's [:D].
