Good afternoon gents.

Does anyone know what the clearance between the rubber bump stop (31 in the manual) and the top of the axle plate (33 in the manual) is meant to be when the car is unladen? I know about the 80mm clearance when loaded up and then various bolts tightened, but I can't see anything about the resulting clearance when this is done and the ballast removed. I assume the 80mm usually has to be attained by adding ballast, which then increases when the ballast is removed.

I've got about 112mm with 3/4 tank (otherwise unladen) on my S3.

You wouldn't happen to have one of those for the front?
Thanks.

Ride height on the front is generally controlled by the rubber block that the spring sits on mounted on top of the wishbone , I believe there are two sizes 90 mm and 70mm the lower the number the lower the front is , there maybe other sizes available ,I have read somewhere on s1 15 to 10 mm clearance from bump stop to lower wishbone
