s6 avant oe springs & bushings

[JTown77]

Anyone know where i could locate new OE or OE spec coil springs for an 02 S6 avant? I also am looking for bushings a complete set either type poly or oe rubber.

I might have my OE S6 suspension somewhere in the garage if you want to pay for shipping from Seattle. As far as poly bushings go I went w/ Strongflex. They are the only company I found with a complete set of bushings F/R for the C5. If you dig up my old build thread I did a complete rear suspension overhaul with them. Super easy to install but a bitch to remove the old bushings.

OE bushings are available too if you research hard enough. I think Febi makes quite a few of them but part numbers are hard to come by. The dealer will just try to sell you complete control arms F/R when the bushings go bad because it's labor intensive to remove the old bushings.

I am interested in the springs. I went with a larger wheel and tire combo so lowering doesnt quite work for me. Do you recall what kit you ordered from Strongflex?

Here's what I ordered for the rear x2. They're OEM sport springs with one level up of weight rating compared to stock springs. They had to be shipped from Germany so it took a while but it was worth it.

I'm not sure what the front spring part# are since mine were in good condition.

Here are the other parts I replaced - I think I got just about everything with rubber on it. I ordered from various stores: FCP, Jim Ellis, Europa, etc.

Are the a6 springs different than the s6 springs?
