Looking to trade in my A7 for an S6. Looking to swap the V3's over. Is it possible?

Thanks!

It's possible, not so sure it'll sit the same being that the weight displacement is different and the weight.

This is interesting.... I just checked the KW site, and the KW V3 kit that fits the A7 is the same kit they recommend for the 8K A4

They don't seem to have a kit for the C7 S6. Closest is one for the A6 Quattro

If I were you, I would sell the coilovers you have and get something that is S6 specific. If it is, in fact, the same kit that is sold to B8 A4 owners, then you will have no problem selling it quickly for top dollar. Why try to install something on an S6 that isnt approved by the company that sells it?

Good Luck!

Thank for all the feedback. Reason i asked, is because i saw the same on KW's site. I find it odd that they didnt have anything for the S6.

Not a big fan of the air suspension. I believe the V3's ride way better, at least in the A7 it did great.

How is the feedback with a lowered air suspension? ride rougher?

The air ride does firm up when lowered either in Dynamic or via HR module.
