Detailed Description

Arnott AS-2965 is a remanufactured rear right air suspension strut for Audi A8 Quattro and Audi S8 models equipped with Sport Suspension. This part number is built for the D3 chassis platform and uses an Arnott-designed air spring bladder that replaces the original reservoir-style layout. The result is a service-ready air strut assembly engineered around the original vehicle fitment and suspension requirements. AS-2965 is also referenced by Audi OE numbers including 4E0616002A and 4E0616002F for the same application.

As part of Arnott’s remanufactured product line, the AS-2965 is cleaned, tested, repainted, and rebuilt in the USA with new wear components such as O-rings, a connector valve, bump stop, and dust cover. The assembly includes a black boot, upper eyelet mount, lower clevis mount, and spring isolators, with upper mounting isolator included. This makes it a focused replacement for drivers servicing rear suspension ride height, damping response, and air spring function on the Audi A8 and Audi S8.

What It Helps Address

• Rear suspension sag on the right side
• Air spring leakage or loss of ride height
• Rough ride quality from worn damping components
• Warning lights related to rear air suspension performance
• Uneven stance on Audi A8 Quattro or S8 Sport Suspension models
