Suspension set up
« on: 10 October 2006, 23:04 »
Hi guys,

Wanted to know from everyone who has changed or upgraded their suspension system to either stock or aftermarket.What has been the best set up for MK 4 GTI 1.8 T.

Mine is a year 2000 and I have changed recently to Bilsteins but I feel the ride wallowy and bounces too much.I think its been messed up.

Your kind assistance much appreciated.

Cheers

You may need to get the steering geometry set up again because if you lower your car this will also change.

Costs about 20-25 quid at a garage.
