    Heres instructions

    http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/a4-a4-cabriolet-s4-forum-b6-chassis/122131-how-fit-your-rs4-rear-anti-roll-bar-rarb.html

    In the link the bushes are A, which are normal ones, this should be D for the new one. (http://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?120463-ARBs&highlight=rs4+rear+anti+roll)

    I've heard amazing reports alright, update us if you get it done.

    Best of luck

    That's pretty cheap for an uprated (I'm guessing?) RARB.

    Surprised the RS4 doesn't have a decent one as standard though, I would have thought the suspension setup would have been as good as it could get already (up to the point of not being fully adjustable coilovers etc...)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,246 ✭✭✭pippip


    No, it's putting an rs4 rarb into a standard a4. It's a direct fit. Front ones are the same on both models.

    Ah right, haha.

    Not sure why I just presumed you both had RS4's the way you were talking.

    As far as I have seen, the se s models have 16mm RARB's, and the one one on my s-line is 12mm and the rs4 is 22mm but I'm open to correction!
    Looking forward to getting this done as it's supposedly meant to drastically reduce the car understeering :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,102 ✭✭✭dar83


    It'll definitely reduce the roll in cornering, which should help turn in.

    I considered it for my car but decided not to as its going to be lowered slightly anyway and with the added stiffness a RARB would bring, it may just make the ride a little too firm for our roads.

    That's the only reason not to do it though, and for €100 it's well worth doing.
