Rear Bump stops??

[16v Matt]

It has always sagged a touch, i don't think its the calipers, as i had one of them replaced due to it being siezed.  Konis adjustable??  I'm not sure mine are.  How & where would i adjust them?  Sorry for my ignorance people, bear with me :embarassed:

What koni kit have you got?
I think even the basic koni shocks have ride adjustable rears, but fixed on the front.
The way it works is there is a circlip under the lower spring plate, once you have taken the strut out, you can move this up or down as you wish.
How low are the backs? can you put your hand under the arch ?

Just the basic koni eibach combo, I can adjust the stiffness at the front.  Yeah you can get your hand under, but put anything in the boot & you've got no chance    Just been told by various peeps the bump stops could be fooked causing this, sound about right?

You've got ride adjustable shocks, so yes you will have height adjustable rears.
Jack the car up just enough so you can see under the arch, check the condition of the bump stops. If they in one piece then check what height adjustment the rears are on, you can do this by looking at the bottom of the shock under the spring plate, count how many grooves there are.

How cool!  Sorry for all the questions mate, but i really had no idea about the height adjustment.  I was almost sure there was no adjustment.  So i'm looking for grooves at the top of the damper???

Look for grooves under the bottom spring plate, so at the bottom of the damper.

Right been & had a look, as best i can in the car park at work,  stuck my hand in & had a feel round   & at the bottom of the spring I can feel a groove, is that it?? if it is, how do i change the ride height?

You need to remove the strut off the car, dismantle the strut, move the circlip, then reassemble.
