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,

  • Stock GTI suspension fitted to a 2.0 FSI? Your thoughts?

    Hey all, I've just bought an '06 2.0FSI, as its all that I can realistically afford at this point in time.

    I've thought about buying an eibach/koni setup, although that doesn't make much sense as I only plan on keeping the car for about 2 years, before (hopefully) buying a MK6 GTI to replace it, so I don't really want to go and spend 2k on suspension for it.

    What do you guys think about sourcing a GTI spring/shock setup from someone on the forum, someone who has upgraded from their stock setup. I know they wont be as good as the eibachs, but they'll be a hell of a lot cheaper, and way better than the comfortline suspension I currently have.

    Do you guys think this move is a possible/wise one to make?

    Thanks for your help

    you may get a quicker response in the mk5 section. I'd say that question would have been asked before, perhaps give it a search.
