Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • TAS R36 Aftermarket Suspension

    Hey guys,

    I know I'll be looking for a while (but no real rush at all here).. Timing chain is due soon

    But I'm looking for some aftermarket shocks + springs (Pref Bilstein B8's) or coilovers for my R36 Wagon.

    If I can't find anything decent I think I'll just go with either the ST's with Adjustable Damping or KW V2's or anything else others can suggest?

    Cheers
    Matt

    Hi Matt,

    Ive put in kw dcc suspension on my 2011 V6 b7 wagon (same model numbers as the r36 apparently) after one of the fronts shocks started leaking.

    Love how it drives now, much more responsive front and only a touch stiffer but being more compliant over bumps.

    Small downside is that at their highest settings, I scraped the exhaust tips on the driveway when I didn't previously. Not cheap either around $3.5k just for parts.

      Yeah I have KW V1's in my B5 A4, they are amazing but due to the AUD vs EUR it's not a good time to buy

        Found some Koni Yellows for sale that are used for a good price.

        Unsure if I should jump on this and unsure on what springs to pair with them.
