Hello all,

 

I have a "well-used" MK1 4x4 with a cracked rear coil spring. Any ideas on here on where I might be able to source a replacement pair? The usual sources (Skoda, TPS, Euro Car Parts) have it listed as obsolete.

 

Thanks in advance,

You don't say what model year or whether it's a saloon or an estate/combi but for starters the parts catalogue page for a 2003 mk1 4x4 is HERE.

Hello Mike!

 

Thanks for the reply, and sorry I've only just seen it. I'm a bit out of the loop, and had forgotten the combi existed (!) in mk1. Anyway your link was brilliant and allowed me to confirm that the spring available from autodoc had the right OE number. I still can't believe that there's nothing in the country but fingers crossed the part arriving from Europe will match in reality as well as onlin.

 

Thanks again,

Replying to an old topic here but it may help some searcher some day. Have a Mk1 4x4 hatch. Had the same sourcing problem with all advertised after market offers being far too weak. Quinton Hazell do an excellent replacement for the official Two Blues, Two Whites. It is their part number QCS7426 and cost me £78 each in Feb 2025.

Im running K-Sport coils from a Audi A3 8L 1.8t quattro on my 1.8T 4x4 1u5 Estate from 2005.

Works like a charm.
A friend of mine with the same car opted for KW v2 1u5 specific ones.
