Suspension upgrade installed
You seem to have gone through more bottom arms than anyone i know π³ Glad to hear you are getting somewhere with it. I'm keeping an eye on my rear links being Whiteline and my fronts failed prematurely but so far they are holding up. Time will tell. Will replace my front rotors too next year thinking going Clubsport S discs unless i find something elseπ Next year I'll be getting the timing chain replaced with all the tensioners as well as new uprated water pump and thermostat housing. For now i need to save some cash as this year i spent far too much going stage 2 and installing Brembo 4 pots on front π My subframes are still oem, no plans to replace them anytime soon πunless car decides otherwise π

Yes i agree about 034 stuff, very good quality. How does the ride feels with your set up? I'm quite happy with mine atm. Still want to fit Eibach springs but that will be after Christmas Yes mine went in dry πͺπͺπ»

@travs mine feels like new car now. In the end i went back to original bottom arms but also replaced my droplinks on the front. I went for 034 Motorsport dynamic+. Not cheap at Β£225 for pair, but the built quality and feel of the car is totally worth it π

Yes sounds about right ππ»

That is absolutely correct you've nailed it. It happened twice now with AD, first time with wrong front pads where they send me pads for 312mm disc even though mine are 340mm which i filtered out, checked against chassis number, cross-referenced with oem part number and even spoke to their technical team who told me that particular part was correct which it wasn't. Same thing this time, Eibach themselves confirmed which kit i need based on chassis number and load ratings for each axle. Checked with Autodoc and boom still wrong. Understand everyone can make mistake but it's the resolving approach what makes difference. In this case they failed miserably.. . lesson learnt

Definitely got to watch where you buying from. I'm now! But even then a decent company with good reputation can make mistake but difference is how these companies approach it afterwards... With Autodoc i couldn't believe my eyes. But still nothing beats my experience with ML Performance this year! And i bought loads of stuff from them over the years

Apparently they opened UK based place in Manchester this year. How true that is I'm not sure. But definitely won't be buying from then again!

Thanks mate ππ» it certainly has been a major pain in butt for me with mods this year π₯±π£

Autodoc - avoid!!!
Yes i did, been shopping on eBay since 2009. Unfortunately at the time these parts were only available from handful of places and Autodoc was way cheaper -lesson learnt

Just a heads up for anyone thinking to order anything from this company. If they send you wrong parts from UK you are supposed to return them to Germany and cover postage which is not refundable!!! There is no phone to call them or email unless they provide you with one and only way to speak to them is via their chat where if you don't reply within 3 minutes another person will take over and then whole chat clears after 3 hours so there is no trace. About 15 different employees told me different things each. Plus where i live ( channel islands) local post refused to accept my parcel due it's value ( apparently post only accpts up to Β£120 worth) so only option i had left was DHL which cost Β£189 to Germany for set of 4 springs. Bear in mind i paid Β£233 for springs with postage from UK. And return is fully covered by you and not refundable. So if i did that i would only be getting back Β£44 ( that's if they deem returned parts eligible for refund) So just a little warning before you give your hard earned cash to these people ππ»

Yeah that's what i mean... On your picture above the Eibach is quite a bit shorter than original spring, what i received is almost identical length but wider diameter π€π£ Anyway I've opened a dispute with Autodoc because the way they handled this is ridiculous...

No quite right... estate springs still fit hatchback but don't lower as much on rear as specific spring for hatchback would as estate is slightly heavier. What i received is completely different rear axle spring.

This must surely be your favourite topic on here John π Yeah these were wrong from the start but autodoc has moved it to another level by putting two different springs wrongly into wrong box π
