Replacement of my original magnetic ride shocks on my 2010 Audi R8 V8. At a minimum, the front left (front driver side) shock had failed, was leaking, and bottoming out on some bumps.
The shocks used were aftermarket ones from China. The specific seller was “airsshocks” and I include a screenshot of the exact shocks in the video. The total cost (including shipping) was $963.75. These shocks arrived at my door in Arizona about three weeks after purchase. I installed them on 11/8/2021 at 35,935 miles.
Original shocks from Audi are ~$10,000 for all four
Other sellers sell OEM shocks for less than Audi
Nagengast rebuilds shocks at ~$1,000 each (~$4,000 for all four)
...let's see how these do...
**UPDATE** They were terrible. Took them off and returned for a refund immediately. I didn't realize this at the time, but although the fronts were nearly identical in total length to the stock ones, the front shock's tube was shorter. This, I believe, allowed less travel and the front would bottom out over even slight bumps. I returned and went with Nagengast. I have a post about these on R8Talk: https://www.r8talk.com/threads/magnet...
