Ohlins B9 A4 S4 / A5 S5 / RS4 RS5 Coilover Suspension - Road & Track
The Öhlins Road & Track Coilover Suspension for the Audi A4, S4, A5, S5, RS4, and RS5 (B9) is engineered to deliver a precise balance between track-focused performance and everyday drivability. Built around Öhlins' Dual Flow Valve (DFV) technology and constructed with aluminum monotube damper bodies, this system provides exceptional control over both compression and rebound damping — allowing the suspension to respond accurately to changing road and circuit conditions while maintaining consistent tire contact across all four corners.
Unlike conventional damper designs, the DFV system manages fluid flow across the full range of shaft speeds. At low shaft speeds, fluid passes through the bleed circuit for controlled, compliant damping. As shaft speed increases, flow transitions through the piston ports, and under high load or sudden impacts, the DFV opens to allow additional flow. This results in improved bump absorption, increased traction, and reduced harshness — unlocking the full dynamic potential of Audi's B9-generation sport sedan and coupe platforms.
Öhlins compensates for heat-induced changes in fluid viscosity using a temperature-reactive needle bleed valve, which adjusts flow as damper temperatures rise during extended track use. This ensures consistent, predictable handling from street driving through sustained circuit sessions, with the same repeatability that Öhlins' motorsport heritage demands.
Ride height adjustment is handled independently from spring preload through a threaded lower mount design. This allows precise lowering without altering spring characteristics or reducing suspension travel, preserving the engineered balance of the system and the natural poise of the B9 chassis.
