Looks smart that 👌🏼 you just need some other bits to compliment it now 😎im in process of putting some more racing line bits too...so far oil filter housing and dipstick. Next one might be screenwash cap and coolant cap

Yeah i need to get them adjusted again when the weather calms down a little bit. I'm hoping it will fix it but i have to say i never noticed it before.

Hey 👋🏼 yes that's correct Bilstein B6 Performance shocks non DCC. Hasn't settled anymore, will have to adjust them properly cos i get fed up with people doing s*it without knowing what to do in first place 🤬 these 034 Motorsport ones are not sided but they go in only one way. Took some photos the other day and last guy who touched it has left one side longer by almost inch 🙈

No mate, non DCC standard suspension... pretty much whole suspension has been replaced

I've never noticed it and i do stare at my car a lot 🙈😀 It has settled by quite a bit so maybe it does need some time but I've never seen anything like it before 🤔

Can someone advise or help? Suspension question - got my 034 Motorsport dynamic droplinks fitted by ,, mechanic,, who fitted them upside down...i know don't ask. Yesterday I've spent good three hours re-fitting them and adjusting them. Both sides equal. Car back on solid even ground to take pre-load off the sway bar. Took the car for test drive all goid, felt really tight, responsive steering so all good. Parked the car up and noticed driver's side is sitting lower than passenger side 🤔by maybe half inch. Anyway it was quite late so left it ready to start all over again but it seem to have settled. Its still lower but maybe half of what it was. Is it likely to settle further or am I better of adjusting myself?

I will know for next time. Well i won't use them at all next time

Yes absolutely agree with you. It has been dealt with by Revolut as i opened a dispute against them and revolut initiated chargeback. Autodoc has challenged it but revolut thrown it back their way. They welcome to have their parts back but on their expense. Not mine

Agree on dust they emit but can't fault their performance. Nearly no squeal on my though but i have different calipers now so maybe something to do with that.

DS2500 are dusty as hell, find myself having to clean wheels every 2 weeks and they are covered!!! But i do like their feel and performance. Mine don't squeal only very rarely- maybe something to do with my calipers being changed to 4 pots. Had ATE ceramic pads before and they were quiet, hardly any dust but used to glaze so much even from daily driving and their performance was horrible

You seem to have gone through more bottom arms than anyone i know 😳 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 else😁 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 😎 My subframes are still oem, no plans to replace them anytime soon 🙃unless car decides otherwise 😀

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 🪒💪🏻

@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 £225 for pair, but the built quality and feel of the car is totally worth it 😊

Yes sounds about right 👍🏻

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!

Another one for Autodoc - same experience as OP had on two occasions!!! Avoid

Thanks mate 🙏🏻 it certainly has been a major pain in butt for me with mods this year 🥱😣

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 £120 worth) so only option i had left was DHL which cost £189 to Germany for set of 4 springs. Bear in mind i paid £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 £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 👍🏻

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 🤔😣 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.

Not sure mate but this Eibach spring definitely is bigger diameter than my stock spring🤔

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