- Hey everyone, welcome back to Daily Downshift! This is a follow up video to the 034 Motorsport Dynamic+ Lowering Springs install on our 2018 Audi S4. The car has finally settled after 3 weeks and we thought an update would be useful. In this video we go all around the car to show the physical drop and discuss stiffness/body roll as well. We hope you enjoy!

I am extremely happy with how much the car has dropped. If anybody is debating this mod and has any questions, feel free to ask!
These two videos were super informative. I'm eager to rid my '21 S4 of the wheel gap but don't want to disrupt the perfectly comfortable OEM setup. Sounds like this is the perfect compromise. Thanks for sharing the install & update. Note, 034 indicates it works with Audi's adaptive/adjustable suspension settings. Can you comment on that?
@@patrickbyr I don't have the adaptive suspension but I know people with the adaptive suspension running these springs. So it should be fine. Some do choose coils instead but I don't see the point
@@DailyDownshift Thanks so much for the feedback. I've no desire for coilovers either on this vehicle. I ran H&R Street Performance coilovers on a MK7 GTI for a couple of years. It was a weekend/track car only so not a daily. Even so, it was much stiffer than OEM. I didn't mind but my family hated driving in it 😀 and I wouldn't want it as a daily driver. Audi pretty much nailed the feel for a sport sedan. For settings, I tend to run dynamic everything and comfort suspension. It's just perfect. Thanks again.
Are you really tho?? I know deep down you wish it was a little bit lower lol
Looks sweet 👍
Hearing good things about EDM as well, particularly for my Sportback. Not interested in bagging it, but getting an OEM+ fit like the RS
EMD, I have them on my S4 feels like stock but looks much better.
@@Rsam86is it still good now? I’m thinking about emd too. how is the drive ability in terms of cornering?
I’d like to do a suspension set up like that for the allroad (b9)
Where did the static camber on the front end up at after it settled? Just curious as front camber is not adjustable without aftermarket control arms.
Glad you got what you want. Even though you are Canadian. Just kidding. Happy motoring!
Did you have to do any recalibration with the drivers assistance stuff (adaptive cruise, pre sense, etc) after you dropped it? About to do H&R sports on my B9 A4 prestige and I’ve heard it causes issues with the adaptive cruise
What size wheels do you have ? I have 18” wheels I’m wondering if these springs will close the gap
Hey man, could you reply with your wheel & tire specs. I got the same car and I love how yours look like. Thank you.
Did you put spacers?
Looks soooo good!! Are you going to try it on the track?
Track day coming up! Putting it all to the test.
What size wheel are you running?
Thanks for the install video; how long did it take for them to settle?” I am at a week and a half and hoping for more.
Within a day or two, you should already be settled. You can get a more aggressive set up but believe me you'll feel the rough ride
where did you get your rims from
I have 20 inch wheels do you think it will rub? You're on 19"s right?
Question for you- was there any issues with getting an alignment afterwards? Did the shop say it was slightly out of spec and needs custom adjustable control arms to be 100% in spec? Or no issues at all? Really considering these springs for my B9.5 A4 Allroad. Only reason I’m asking is when I had my MK6 Jetta, I Purchased eibach pro kit springs (very mild drop) and the alignment was always out, I needed to buy adjustable control arms
Did not have to buy any control arms. The shop was able to adjust it as is
does this do anything to the adaptative suspension? Like does "comfort" still feel like comfort? and "dynamic" feels like dynamic?
I don't have the adaptive damping suspension on mine but it should still feel similar albeit a bit more "stiff"
I have it on my B9 s5 and it work just as perfect as before. A bit stiffer for sure.
Did you also fit shorter bump stops when you changed the springs?
No, I didn't. Full install video on the channel
Did you change the shocks as well when you changed the springs? If so, what shocks did you use. I'm considering Bilstein B8s. Thoughts?
Stock shocks
I'm interested in getting this done to my s5, but I have practicality concerns. Where I live the roads aren't great and I've already had some issues with height, how much did the lowering affect the driveability in terms of hitting shit and scraping on speedbumps ect.? Thanks!
These springs are the minimum drop as opposed to other brands, so I find that it's the best of both worlds. No issues with speedbumps just go slow!
@@DailyDownshift thanks! I'll give them a try
Did you get an alignment after? If not do u see tire wearing?
Had an alignment done, definitely a necessity
What percent tint do you have? Also is this Florett silver?
Yeah, it's Florett. I believe 30%
You got spacers on too?
No spacers
Can you tell the wheel spec? offset ?
