Default Suspension Repair Question

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on a suspension repair for my 2015 Audi S4. The car has around 146k miles, and I’m noticing a bit of sag on the passenger side.

I think it could be an issue with the shock absorber or potentially the control arm, but I’m not entirely sure.

The ride feels a little rougher, and I can hear some creaking when going over bumps. Has anyone experienced something similar?

I’d appreciate any guidance on diagnosing the issue or tips on the best replacement parts for this model

Just try to do a suspension re-torque and see if it helps any.

Your vehicle may have more than one problem.
Sagging can be caused problems with the air suspension system. Weak struts don't help.
A thorough inspection would provide better results than anything offered here.
Stability and control are very important and guessing here without actually looking , no matter how you want to call it, is still guessing.
Suggest you have a good shop inspect your vehicle and provide an opinion based on what they see that requires attention.
Your safety and those around you on the road can be influenced by what your vehicle does
Please don't just place this on the back burner it is very important !
Thank You.
