Ditto. Was wondering the same thing just the other day.

A question that has people stumped?

There should be a code for the front and rear suspension on the build sticker that was fitted by the factory and somewhere on the web (sorry lost my link to it) there is a vag spring rate chart that gives the rates depending on the code and/or colours on the springs, I used it when I was trying to find replacement springs for my 1999 A4 TQS as the rates are specific to my car with its factory lowered sports suspension and 4 cylinder engine.

No sticker on mine for a long time now as not running standard setup.
Looking at softening the ride a little now that I'm getting a bit more mature,
