Front suspension parts help

[Snapper1725]

Hi all 

can anyone confirm these front Sachs parts are correct 

replace rears a good while back and had incorrect ones 

so here goes 

 

Sachs 317-575 front shockers ( 3C0 413 031AT Sticker on shocker) 

 

Sachs 993-061 coil springs 

colour code on car spring is 

Orange 

Green

Yellow 

Yellow

 

Sachs 802-417 Top mount/bearing kit 

Sachs 900-136 Dust/Bump stop kit 

 

car is a 2013 estate 2ltr tdi 170bhp manual 

pic of build spec included 

cheers all

3C0411105C Front coil spring L03
1 orange paint mark
1 green paint mark
2 yellow paint marks

 

Sachs 993061 front springs match 3C0411105C. However, Kilen 25068 and KYB RH3559 are much cheaper and also OE quality.

 

3C0413031AT Front shock absorber G07

 

Sachs 317575 front shock absorbers are sold to replace a huge number of OEM part numbers including 3C0413031AT. Cars listed against this shock absorber include smaller cars such as the Octavia MK2 and Golf MK5/6.

 

Bilstein B4 22-151056 front shock absorbers are sold to replace a much smaller list of OEM part numbers than Sachs 317575, and smaller cars such as the Octavia MK2 and Golf MK5/6 aren't listed against them. For these reasons my preference would be the Bilstein over the Sachs. However, if you already have Sachs front shock absorbers I can understand the desire to match the brands.

 

The below Sachs parts look ok

Sachs 900-136 Dust/Bump stop kit

hi Carlston

 

so reading your post I seem to have the correct Sachs items for Shockers and Coil springs 

 

why I’ve picked Sachs is cos that’s what I fitted on the rears 

 

This is pic I found back tracking through some photos I had and it showed the colour dots on spring 

 

cheers

It was easy to find the correct front spring because of the L03 build code on the white build code label...and the coloured dots on your photo confirms this, ie. orange, green, and two yellows.

Thanks very much for your help, it’s much appreciated 

 

I don’t know what all them numbers mean on the photo 

I had the photo because I was looking for the engine code once 

 

cheers again

Type up all the 3-digit build codes and copy and paste them into the VW codes decoder. However, there's only 46 of them shown on your white build code label when in fact the car has a lot more build codes than what's shown...perhaps around 180 build codes. There's a seller on ebay that can supply all your car's build codes. Link at the bottom of this post.

Notice that the build codes for the front brakes, rear springs, and rear shock absorbers aren't shown...hence it can be handy to have the full list of build codes.

No not yet,  am still trying to figure out the L03 code to how you can tell which springs/shockers are correct 

G07 for shockers

You can see in the Skoda parts catalogue that 3C0411105C is listed against build code L03, and 3C0413031AT is listed against build code G07.
