Ahh, in the context of the rebuilding the stock shock if it's never been
replaced with something else?I don't know if Koni was ever an OE for Audi

Granted, however there are a few different Koni's we've done in ur-qs and others
that were not the listed application for the car but had the right combination
of valving and stroke for the spring rate and ride height being used at the
time. Not to mention externally adjustable and in a few cases double adjustable.
