My 1994 S6 Audi has had a kock in the rear left wheel area for a while, today I finally decided to remove the strut and inspect.
Here is what I found: The shock shaft where the thread starts, has been smashing up through the first part of the upper mount (the pressed steel spring perch part) and has been shredding it nicely.

Does anyone have either this part, or a whole strut available that I can scavenge the steel part from?
Cheers.
