Rear spring part number
Snapped the last inch off one of my back springs. Dealer wants my VIN#, and $153. Rock Auto has them for $39 and says they fit all B5's.
Is there any magic to getting the right spring for my 99.5 A4 Q 2.8?

Somethings can only be found if you have the part number.
No worries though they we have them below.

Rockauto seems like a good deal until you see the shipping. They come from the U.K. and is $$$ to ship. They are aftermarket instead of OEM.
Genuinevwaudiparts or Audiusaparts has OEM for about $95 + shipping.
My A4 rear spring just did the same thing a few weeks ago. No ride height change, but noisy when going over bumps. I'm going the Audiusaparts route.

i know springs use a color system code, look at yours for a small dot greeon or red or whatever. Also engine has a factor, putting wrong spring will cause the ride height to differ.
Best way to be sure is by VIN.

I'm not sure I care that much on that part. My thought was that I have a factory part on there that's missing an inch of spring......and the only thing I notice different is the noise. Are there other reasons to care about factory parts there?
