These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I want to lower my 04 C4S about 1 inch all around. But I don't want to spend a bundle on doing it. Do I need to replace all of the shocks and springs, or can I just replace the springs only. Any suggestions on a possible set up?

POST 2Original post

You can't not spend a "bundle." Replacing springs only will make the shocks deteriorate faster. Search for PSS9, PSS10, x73, or Bilstein Sport Shock/Eibach or H&R spring setup.

+1 Keep an eye on the classifieds, or be prepared to spend a couple grand, plus install and alignment

POST 5Original post

How many miles are on your car, Jim? If there aren't too many, you should be able to just go with springs without negatively affecting the rest of the suspension. That said, your car would certainly perform better if you went with one of the kits mentioned above. Also, you would need an alignment after the springs are installed.
