  1. I got the build codes list from the eBay seller you suggested. Front shocks and springs G03 Shock absorption in front L31 Suspension range 31 installation control only, no requirement forecast Rear shocks and springs UC7 Rear shock absorption, chassis with increased ride height 0YD Weight range 4 installation control only, no requirement forecast I couldn’t understand which code(s) are for the anti roll bar though. Do you know what I should be looking for?
  2. Thank you, that is a really good explanation for dummies like me. That also convinces me to go for the standard height springs. Some of my of driving involves twisty mountain roads and that is why the body roll of the raised suspension annoys me so much. I think the standard springs with good shocks would provide good compromise between comfort and stability and allow me to carry a family with a lot of luggage in the back.
  3. Wow, you are a star! Thank you so much for the detailed answer. This is extremely helpful. You convinced me, I will go for the standard ride height. It will be an improvement to the current setup and gives me the peace of mind I won’t go too low. It will first speak to my Skoda dealer as besides the build codes I also need to make sure these modifications won’t impact my warranty. Thanks again I think I have all I needed to know.
  4. Thank you so much! I think I’d rather go for the Lowered ride height which I believe would be what is fitted to the Sportline. Rear axle There seem to be two shock absorbers with the 1JC code (3Q0513049FN and 3Q0513049FP) However, finding the right rear spring seems to be a mission as there are 11 springs listed with the 1JC code. I might have to browse through them to see what the difference is. Do you have an idea what the second part of the code is for (eg. PR-1JC+0YA)? I am wondering if that could give me a clue as to which one to choose. Front axle Do you know what is the Lowered ride height code on the front axle shocks? I see there are three options again (G01, G02 and G03). In terms of the front springs, is there a way I can find out what the corresponding colour code would be for FWD Sportline? I see you’ve sent the shock absorber buffers. Would I need to change these as well?
  5. Thanks I think will go for the B6 but not sure if that also works well with the springs I have now. Initially I was actually thinking of changing the springs first and then dampers later when they are due for replacement but not sure what the current dampers are and respectively if they will fit the standard or Sportline springs. On the other hand not sure what results I will get. As far as I understand there is a fair bit of body roll with the standard suspension too so perhaps changing the shocks first will be better.
  6. Thanks that is really helpful! Do you know if Lesjofors gives better performance than the standard springs? I’m still undecided whether to go for standard or Sportline as I believe Sportline height would be fine and might give better stability.
  7. Copy paste from another thread: 5Q0411105HS front spring 1 grey paint mark and 1 blue paint mark https://www.lllparts.co.uk/catalogs/skoda/CZ/SUP/851/4/411/411000 5Q0411105HS is used on the Octavia MK3 Scout, so is an increased ride height front spring, at least when used on the Octavia MK3. 5Q0411105HS front spring https://web.tecalliance.net/gkn/en/parts/1/87966/detail?query=5Q0411105HS&numberType=1&oe=5Q0411105HS&groups=188#@brc/search:Search%20by%20any%20number%205Q0411105HS;query:5Q0411105HS;page:0/detail:87966;brandId:1;articleNo:87966;query:5Q0411105HS;numberType:1;oe:5Q0411105HS;groups:188
  8. Thank you! I also could not find the car parts what the parts for rough road package but took a pic of one of the springs (front) and it has a blue and grey dots. I will see if I can do the same with the shocks.
  9. Thanks, I actually looked at this topic earlier but am a bit hesitant experimenting with springs made for a different model. I know perhaps it is perfectly fine but that’s the way I am. Do you know what is the drop that you got from standard height? Sorry, I was not clear. It is the standard Superb track width that seems narrow to me but combined with the higher suspension it makes for for a bad aesthetics. I’ll probably get spacers to sort that out too. As for the rough road protection, yes I bought it with it and am quite disappointed. They didn’t explain in the dealership that the car comes with a raised suspension. I was expecting just additional skid plates etc. I mean roads are not great here but I won’t be doing off-roading so definitely don’t need such a high ride 😂 Probably Eibach Pro-Kit would be fine too but I don’t want to be thinking about kerbs and speed bumps too much.
  10. Hello everyone! I have Skoda Superb Mk3 hatch FWD 2.0 TDI 200ps with Rough Road Protection suspension package and no DCC. With the rough road protection I’m really disappointed with the driving experience and the car aesthetics. It leans a lot when cornering, bounces at speed bumps and is not nice to drive in general. It also looks excessively high and the wheels are hidden in the wheel arches. I’ve spent the last week reading through the forum to find the right solution to this problem but am quite divided the my options. On one hand there are the Eibach Pro Kit or H&K which I’m confident would sort out the problems but I’m concerned it will become too low for the driving conditions where I live. I also saw that fitting Sportline springs with new dampers also improves handling but I have no clue how to find out which are the right Sportline springs for my car. I also see that some people have recommended Lesjofors springs but couldn’t find out what the height would be with them and in general I wonder if it is a better option than the Sportline springs. Finally in terms of the dampers, I see a lot of positive reviews for Billstein B6 and mixed ones for Koni AS so I’m leaning towards the B6. I guess that could be combined with any of the above springs and would give good results. I see the Pro Kit suspension kit comes with B12 dampers and wondered what’s the difference between B12 and B6. Any help or suggestions about this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks 😊
  11. Hi TWW, I have rough road protection installed on my Superb mk3 2021 as well and wondering if I can lower it by just changing the springs or need to change the shock absorbers too. I am considering fitting Eibach Pro Kit. Thank you.
