XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Audi A4 B8 SEDAN 4WD (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2008-2016

The B8 A4’s longitudinal engine sits ahead of the front axle line, and on the quattro cars that nose-heavy mass is the single biggest thing standing between you and a tidy turn-in. The XYZ Racing Street Advanced coilover is built to take that weight in hand: a height-adjustable, damping-adjustable kit that lets you drop the centre of gravity and firm up the front end without turning a daily-driven A4 into a track car you dread on a motorway slip road.

This particular kit is the 4WD version specified with the cancellation module for the factory electronic damping, so the car’s adaptive dampers can be removed cleanly without leaving a dashboard warning lit. It is aimed at the owner who wants real adjustability on a road-biased setup, with the headroom to firm things up for an occasional track day.

What this coilover does for your 2008-2016 Audi A4 B8 Sedan 4WD

Lower the B8 onto the Street Advanced and the first thing you feel is the reduction in body roll that the standard quattro setup carries through quicker direction changes. The 720 increments of damping adjustment let you run a softer rebound for broken UK B-roads and wind compression back in when the surface improves, so ride quality and control are yours to set rather than fixed at the factory. Height adjustment lets you close the arch gap and shift a little weight rearward in feel, taking the edge off the nose-led understeer the platform is known for. On the quattro car the result is a front axle that bites earlier and a rear that follows more honestly, with braking stability that holds when you load the front under heavy stops.

About the Street Advanced coilover

The Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most popular line, refined over several years by the company’s engineering team and validated through international race programmes before reaching production. It is built specifically for the dual life of normal road use and the occasional track day, which is exactly the brief most fast-road B8 owners have. The headline figure is 720 ways of damping adjustment, giving fine control over how the car reacts to bumps, kerbs and weight transfer rather than the coarse soft/medium/firm steps of an OE adaptive system. Construction is geared to consistent damping under repeated heat cycles, and the fully threaded body gives independent ride-height setting. XYZ describes it as essential kit for drivers chasing both pace and control, and the spread of adjustment backs that up.
