do VW do a kit as an option ?, on the ST the Eibachs was an option hence covered by warranty

Mines out of warranty as from June 28th.

Are they alligning the car on the same day as fitting ?

Yes... I have asked various people like Ricci Concept, Awesome GTI & AMD and they all say the same... YES
Personally I would of thought it would be best to leave it while they settle in a bit, but they said it doesn't matter... Like I know best, Yeh !!!
That's why they are fitting them and I'm not....

I left mine for about a week before getting the alighment done.

I spoke to a guy at JBS this week who asked his dealer for a price to fit some FSD's to his Ed30 (he wanted to improve the ride which he said they did just that), and they quoted him ... £500!  Yes and thats just for fitting them.

I'm surprised the dealership has agreed to fit the suspension!  I asked my local dealers about mods to suspension/brakes/remap etc and the guy laughed at me and said "no chance - your warranty will be void."  Went to a seat dealership and they were offering remap (300bhp+) to any cupra for £500 with warranty intact, with other mods as well.  Why are vw so stingy?  :sad:
