Haha, same here, also do know where the number came from. But it is the 8J0 512 149 i will install. They are 10 £ for the pair so why not give it a try instead of new springs for now.

Would guess yes. The part no I've found is 5Q0 512 341 B for the IV. But not sure if this is already mounted from the factory

And yes they are mounted 🫣

@JR RS why isn't the 79 then stated in the tuv for the IV estate?

Hmm, nevermind me asking for the thicker top plate. This is most likely already installed when it a IV 🫣

Hey again, Installed and rolling .... Overall a much better feel compared to stock. No more wobbling around like being on a ferry in rough seas. 😂 @MartiniB as you predicted, it's sitting a bit lower in the rear than the front. The TÜV papers mention that the 11-85-016-10-HA should be installed with a thicker spring plate on top when used on a heavier car. Anyone who installed this and noticed a slight raise in the rear?

@MartiniB You're probably right – the plate on the car shows the current specs: Front 1130 kg Rear 1200 kg The ratings from E10-85-042-04-22 is 1200 kg front and 1250 kg rear, so it's a difference of 70 kg front and 50 kg rear. I'm hoping it'll still settle okay. Maybe not the full 30–35 mm drop like the rates say, but that’s alright with me. @JR RS Thanks, I will have it done when everything is replaced. --- Further information. The Tüv states that the F11-85-042-03-FA + F11-85-016-10-HA are the only one compatible with the IV (PHEV) Here in DK it can be an issue if you need to have the car through an MOT and the person is a jerk. In this case all documentation needs to be in order. Let see how everything turn out. Pictures will follow when installed, and thank both of you for your time.

Thanks. By mistake, when ordering, I selected the 04-22 and im trying to figure out if it would still be suitable for the car. (1.4 IV with DCC) Do you by any chance know if i can move forward without getting into trouble with the dcc
