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,

  • Lowering springs

    How much to install a set been quoted over $1000 seems excessive to me, anyone had them done cheaper and who through, I'm in WA, thanks

      Rear springs take 10 mins per side. Front springs are more involved, probably an hour.

      $1,000 for install only is nuts. I did mine in my garage at home in a coupe of hours. With a hoist and the right tools it would be much faster.

        Yeah quotes for suspension are out to lunch. I got a quote for almost 3k for a Bilstein b8 kit and H&R springs supplied and installed. The kit is around 1k so almost 2k in labour.

        Might be easier to rent(?) Some tools and have a go yourself with a mate? That is my plan, eventually.
