Designed to deliver an OE-like ride, the Arnott Industries AS-3121 Rear Air Suspension Strut is a complete, new assembly built with OE-quality components. Arnott engineered it as an aftermarket replacement for the OE strut on the 2011-2018 Audi A8 Quattro without sport suspension. One unit fits either the left or right rear side. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

  • Continental ContiTech air sleeve: The multi-ply, cross-corded sleeve is designed for enhanced strength and extended service life. An aluminum can and dust cover protect it, and it is coupled with a CNC-machined top.
  • Custom-designed shock absorber: The premium damper is custom-tuned for an OE-like ride. The strut converts adaptive to passive.
  • Tier 1 components: The assembly is built with Tier 1 parts, including O-rings, a bump stop, heavy-duty crimping rings, an air line fitting and a connector valve.
  • Designed and assembled in the USA.

Signs a rear air strut may need replacing include:

  • the rear of the car sitting low after it has been parked
  • a hissing air leak
  • the air compressor running more often than usual
  • a bouncy or unsettled ride

These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the system first. If a worn rear strut is the cause, the AS-3121 replaces it.

This assembly is only for vehicles without sport suspension. For best results, Arnott recommends replacing air struts in pairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the AS-3121 fit an Audi A8 with sport suspension?

No. This rear air strut assembly is only for 2011-2018 Audi A8 Quattro models without sport suspension.

Does one strut fit both rear sides?

Yes. Arnott designed the AS-3121 as a universal replacement that fits either the left or right rear side of the listed Audi A8 Quattro.

Should I replace both rear air struts at the same time?

Arnott recommends replacing air struts in pairs for best results, so both rear sides are serviced together.

What air sleeve does this strut use?

It uses a multi-ply, cross-corded Continental ContiTech air sleeve. The sleeve is protected by an aluminum can and dust cover and is coupled with a CNC-machined top.

What are signs a rear air strut may need replacing?

Common signs are the rear sitting low after parking, a hissing air leak, the compressor running more often, or a bouncy ride. Diagnose the cause first; if the strut is at fault, the AS-3121 replaces it.
