Help, s7 air suspension arm change special tool?

[mike0819]

My s7 air suspension front lower arm bush is failing, I brought the parts from Audi, but they can't fit it until two months later, they all booked out, and labour quote is $1300

I.m kind of heading out a long trip, my mate garage can do it, he just wants to know is there any special tool to fit this?

It quote I have to drain the air suspension, is that a special tool and do I need recoding afterwards? And do I need wheels alignment afterwards?

I uploaded the Audi job and parts I brought, if there is any video link on fitting or advice please help, happy new year

Your lower control arm?

They are taking you to the cleaners...

Unless you're bag is leaking

Then you want to reach out to Tyler/TGK

My air suspension bag not leaking, so U mean I don't need drain my air suspension? Can just change it like this?

Do I need recoding afterwards? Anyone done it with the s7? Thanks

The LCA assembly is the same across the c7/7.5 with OEM air

Look through here. I discussed the LCA and control arm bushings. If your suspension looks like mine, follow the YT link above and what Cameron says. It's all the same connections
