Hey guys
I have a 2014 GTI PP with the DCC dampers and VWR springs. It doesn't ride very well and with the appalling state of UK roads it only exacerbates the awful ride quality especially at low speeds.
I'm getting to the point where I'm getting a bit frustrated with the car. Don't get me wrong it's a fantastic car but I feel it's really held back and I often spend my time avoiding potholes / bumps in the road rather than actually enjoying driving the thing!
So I'm considering spending a bit on the car, refreshing the suspension and possibly going stage 1 to liven things up a little bit.
I'm looking at a good all rounder type set up for UK roads. I'd like to keep the DCC functionality although it's not essential. I'm currently thinking Bilstein B6 and OEM springs as this seems to be a well regarded set up. Only trouble is I don't have the OEM springs for the car as I bought it used already sitting on VWR's.
I've had the OEM springs priced up by a mate in the trade and they're pretty damn expensive, so that's holding me back..Can anyone suggest any options for my car? Perhaps there are other springs which are similar to OEM but don't carry the hefty price tag? I think with everything priced in B6's and OEM springs would cost about £1.7k+
