urS6 suspension upgrade advice

[bigtalljim]

I may have to replace front shocks on my S6 Avant (97) and the price is approx £300+ so was wondering about an upgrade.

Anybody done this and what sort of proces should I expect. Would need to do all four I suspect?

Any advice welcome

Yes. All 4.

I had Bilstein on my 100 2.8q and Koni on my urS4. Both fitted by previous owners and both ruined ride and handling. I'd strongly advise against it.

Having said that, I have Koni FSDs on the A2 which while not being exactly a sport shock are very good. The idea is that they are receptive to quick movements like bumps but resist slower movements associated with cornering and handling. Best part of £450 though.

As he says, new shocks will do the trick, you shouldn't need to upgrade.
