Just put these on my 2017 SQ5 today. Love the ride, instantly feel closer and connected to the road. Haven't put many fast turns in but as for Day 1, super happy.
that dude from nemesis is a good dude. I've dealt with him.. its low.. my sq leans bad , just got h&r's for my q. and a sway bar from 034 motorsports .. good video ..
I am about to lower my SQ5 this week on the same setup. Did you have do anything to re adjust your headlights or did the auto level sensors do all of the work?
Hey man, thanks for the video. Have you challenged the KW's at all? Meaning spirited driving? I have the same set up and am currently choosing my SQ5's setup
Very illustrative video brother. Hopefully you can help me or guide me. I recently changed the rear suspension on my sq5, for an eibach threaded suspension (pro street s, similar to kw). Well, I have a problem in the rear. The mechanic removed the spring with a bar, then inserted the new one with its thread, but did not adjust the suspension arms at any time, he told me that it was not necessary, is this true? Now, to have the same height on both sides, I have a significant difference in the adjustment thread, on one side it is at the extension limit (I need to raise the car a little more and I cannot, it is already dangerous) and on the other side ( driver) is less than half. Something is wrong and I don't think it's the springs. Do you have to adjust suspension arms? How high did you make the adjustment? Thank you very much in advance. Greetings from Spain and Merry Christmas!
Looks awesome. That's a serious drop compared to stock. Do you know if theres any negative aspects to lowering the SQ5 as far as driveline geometry and quattro?
Just did this myself this last weekend on my sq5. It's not too bad of a job. Took me about 6 hours. I'd watch as many install videos you can and read some install guides.
Hi there, great Videos but seriously get your exhaust fixed it doesnt fit 7:24 mins hurts my eyes... Apart from that awesome ride and thanks for sharing!
katdaddychap sure everyone is entitled to an opinion, but the gap around the back tire looks even all around the tire while in front, it wasn’t. But like I said, this will change with new wheels.
Great video man. I've been on the audizine forums for a bit finding the right lowering setup for my 2017 SQ5 and these may just be the ones. Keep up with he videos as usual!
Why not buy an RS4 or S4. SUV's don't have much logic to them (IMHO), even less so "Performance" SUV's... but to then lower it. Scratching my head on this one...
Totally with you on this, this is a solution in search of a problem. Yes it's different but pointless. S4 Avant and doesn't look like you're trying so hard.

So you got an s4 hatchback after lowering the sq5
Helllll yeah!

You need to upgrade the sway bars to have less body lean in corners. The factory sway bar system is for stock spring rate, ride height and dampening.
I know :)
i wanted to get the kw v1 for the macan, i think its the same suspension. how does the ride compare to oem?

Just bought my KW HAS from Mops!! Lowering my SQ5 tomorrow night!
How low did you drop it please . Ride height when driving please
3 inch drop, 2 1/2?
How to clear the front control arm?
Hey where did you get your Honeycomb grill
I am about to lower my SQ5 this week on the same setup. Did you have do anything to re adjust your headlights or did the auto level sensors do all of the work?
Hi any idea how to choose kW v1 - v3 ? I am planning put these on my sq5. Spiritual driver no track days, thanks.
I like the lowered look, kind of looks like a large hot hatch(a UK phrase). New wheels will look great with the lower look.
Mops is the man. Looking good!
Hey man, thanks for the video. Have you challenged the KW's at all? Meaning spirited driving? I have the same set up and am currently choosing my SQ5's setup
Had Kw’s on my A4. Absolutely lovely Coilovers and well worth the money! Swear by them! So much so im gonna order some for my new S4
hi cool vids, did you get an error on the dash after the install i know the s4 doesn't like it
I did not. Only if your car comes with adaptive suspension
I remember you had H&R coils on the S4 and you went Kw on this are they that much better than the h&r???
Now that you’ve had these coilovers for a while, how are you liking them? How do they ride now compared to stock? Thinking of lowering mine 😬😬
They’re fine. I liked my H&R’s better on my S4. Rides better than stock like I said in the video
I am going to wait on some new options from 034. How hard was the grill install?
Hard!
MOPS is the man!!!

Does your audi connect work? I have data but I can’t ever seem to get that working
Yes!
I wonder how th sq5 will look with my q7 21 inch wheels and tires
Bro! You got it. Ball out with bags and 3 piece wheels. ☺
Do you need to get an alignment after the coil overs are installed ?
Yes! But waiting to dial in the ride height with the new wheels before getting an alignment
What is your wheels? thanks!
I'm thinking about lowering my A4, what do you recommend. A cup kit or coilovers? I want to go smoother than factory.
Coilovers are adjustable
@@IgnitionTube would it be worth the extra money for coilovers?
Ayeeeee, can’t wait to see it!
New sub, love this build series as I am a big Audi fan. Seriously thinking about an SQ5 now based on your videos. Keep it up!
Your right exhaust is wonky. Couldn't stop looking at it 😂
Already fixed
@@IgnitionTube good man 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Didn’t realise how much you needed wheels (I know they’re on their way) till the glamour shots.
Looks awesome. That's a serious drop compared to stock. Do you know if theres any negative aspects to lowering the SQ5 as far as driveline geometry and quattro?
Not that I know of!
What a difference,looks beautiful
what's wrong with the exhaust pipes on the right side? They don't seem to be even. BTW It looks fucking sick lowered like this.
crooked because of a loose clamp. Has been remedied.
Why is your right exhaust tips crooked?
Because the center clamp was loose! Has since been remedied
Running V1s on my B8 S4, such a great setup, kudos!
The car looks soo much better now!
I am sorta confused why he didn't go for like a Golf R being a relatively similar price range.
Downgrade in quality + small
YUP. Lots of B8 shock and struts fit the Q5.
Do you prefer these over the h&rs?
Nope!
What size center bore on the spacers?
same size as the hub and the factory hub bore? lol. otherwise they wouldn't work
How much for KW ?
Why don't you show how to take the suspension in and out. Step by step. It would be nice so people can follow and do it to their own cars
Want to get this done but scared I can't tackle this myself. 😕
I’m scared of the fronts, that’s why Izzy was there 😂
Just did this myself this last weekend on my sq5. It's not too bad of a job. Took me about 6 hours. I'd watch as many install videos you can and read some install guides.
Nice sq5 i am looking for one now they are so hard to find
Whats the point of lowering suv's?
What’s the point of lowering anything?

Hi there, great Videos but seriously get your exhaust fixed it doesnt fit 7:24 mins hurts my eyes... Apart from that awesome ride and thanks for sharing!
Nice job! Looks awesome.
Gosh damn you have some great taste on mods bro, first your s4 and now this.
Thanks Jose!
Your exhausts aren't really in right position. Little ugly to me.
The center clamp was loose -> I’ve since fixed and they’re straight again!
I'm looking to do just the opposite and thats to raise it couple of inches higher! Any idea whats the best way ?
Uhhhh double stack springs!! 😂😂
Finally!
CAROLINA SQUAT is the proper term LOL
Invisible trailer gang
All this needs is new wheels and it will be beautiful
Great Colour 😍
Lol why have an suv to lower it? Isn't the whole point of having an suv , to not be low to the ground?
Yolo
I feel like you went too low in the front. Might look different once wheels are in.
No such thing as too low. 😂
katdaddychap sure everyone is entitled to an opinion, but the gap around the back tire looks even all around the tire while in front, it wasn’t. But like I said, this will change with new wheels.
@@Wrekt330 I was just being silly. But I do like slammed cars so. But I'm not that picky.
It’s gonna look better once proper wheels are on
Great video man. I've been on the audizine forums for a bit finding the right lowering setup for my 2017 SQ5 and these may just be the ones. Keep up with he videos as usual!
Beautiful
I am no longer part of the tractor gang but got a MK7 GTI :)
Zachary Stoll put a downpipe on it and you’ll be back in the tractor gang 😂
Stock wheels dont look awful. People just say they do so they can feel cool they spent all that money on custom wheels that probably do look awful.
Awesome😀
Right exhaust tips are crooked
I know. It’s been addressed in comments already and has been fixed
Miss the s4 😥
Just bought a black 2015 s4. Obbsessed
Dude... If you weren't going to show the install process, why not save everyone some time and just do a before & after. 30 second and you're done!
what's the point of lowering an suv? Just buy an estate if you want a low center of gravity.
i think thats just an s5
sorry to say, but lowered SUV's just look a bit tacky
That’s ok! To each their own!
Seems like you’re in the minority Duncan
And high trucks don’t ? Gay boy
no Cali lean in Cali. That's east coast hood junk.
Horrible ' ultimate disrespect to the Q5 🥴
LIKE ! 👍🏻
B8 S4/ A4 H&R coilovers SUCK.
Sell me your stock wheels 😍
Sure, are you local? Lol
@@IgnitionTube where is your location? State?
LOL i thought it a joke...byuing a SUV for lowing it...
Booooooooooo wheres the bags?
At the grocery store
Why americans prefer Mercedes and bmw? That G wagon box 1980 shit design
This is an SQ5...
@@IgnitionTube I know, but it's the first video of an American and two audi s, otherwise it seems that there are only c63, g63 and m5 in usa
channel died down quickk
Uhhhh what? This video has 3k views in 7 hours 😂
Had to mark dislike once he started talking about tucking tyre. :puke:

Hello did you get an dampening error message Bc you changed out the factors shocks and springs ?
