Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs Review-VW Polo GTI AW

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Correction: Eibach Sportline, H&R and Racingline springs do NOT throw any error codes. However coilovers will definitely result in damper faults for which you will need DCC cancellers.

6:00 shows the absolute beauty of this car! I ahve been one skeptic about the design of the Polo AW, but that angle has won me over, it's an absolute beauty! Job well done on the lowering, makes it look even better!

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

😁👍 Absolutely! I think the looks of the AW are so much better when its lowered. Factory ride height makes all Polo AW's look a little awkward especially the GTI.

[@mrvoorhees2627]

Got a 2021 polo gti same colour same wheels and just bought same lowering springs after watching this i wasn't sure if they would lower it enough but after watching this it looks good without ruining the ride thanks🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 just subbed

[@colingovindasamy8708]

Had coilovers. It had the looks but such a horrible drive for everyday use.bought a set of eibach springs such a huge difference in comfort yet still have that lowered look .these springs are expensive but well worth the money

Love your car, love your passion for the polo gti ❤️

Great video, every question i had is answered now 👌🏻

[@dylan4972]

I think I'll get these springs for my daily as I also don't like the stock height but don't want it too low. Great choice of springs it seems.

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Yeah stock height makes the car look so awkward, this is definitely a better daily driver option

[@davidletterboyz]

How is the comfort level compared to the stock spring?

[@dylan4972]

@@davidletterboyz a little bit firmer but still a comfortable ride.

sick hot hatch nd the colour is 👌👌

Hey Bud. Beautiful Polo Gti you got. Tell me does this eibach pro kit fit on the polo Aw rline 2021 aswell?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Hey bro, thanks 😁. No this specific one does not fit the AW R line but Eibach does make springs specific to the R Line Polo as well. It should also be called be Pro Kit but cheaper than the GTI version probably.

[@donovaneckardt4635]

@@carcrazyguysa4059 Oh okay thanx for the reply brother. Tell me where did you purchase your dropkit? So i can also find out if they can supply me.

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

@donovaneckardt4635 No worries bro, I purchased and fitted at Xtreme Motorsport in near Century City, Cape Town. You could mention my recommendation to them maybe might get you a good price too.

[@donovaneckardt4635]

Will do thanx so much for the info brother much appreciated...

[@dozerdrives]

..very informative, mate.. great stuff...

[@sledge2928]

Great video bro, I have a Polo gti 2019 and I'm thinking of doing the same. Big question is does this affect my Warranty with Vdub?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

I don't believe it will since these springs are TUV approved as long as you install at a professional accredited installer. Rather confirm with your dealer, perhaps they can fit for you. The dealers themselves fit these springs.

[@halilerr]

I am thinking of installing 18 rims. Will I have any problems with 215 40 with 5 cm springs? I would appreciate it if you could answer me.

[@malcolmchetty8398]

Awesome review, appreciate it 👏

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Thanks brother! 👍

[@ryanhall8304]

Do the springs fit the facelift polo gti mate?

[@thabisokubeka9723]

How much can it cost to lower a polo life?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Depends on what springs or coilovers you go for. Mine was R5800 for the springs and R1000 for fitting, total R6800. But that was last year, so prices may be higher now.

[@poloawgtivw9550]

In my car polo gti 2019 I have the choise to select driver profile (eco ,normal, sport) & if I select sport mode the suspension is not so soft as it is in the eco mode and my question is if with these springs I will lose this potential?The basic question is if with eibach springs the ride will be the same in any mode????

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Good question, what you are referring to is the sport select suspension. My car has it as well. No you will not lose the ability to switch modes. In fact I would only recommend these springs if you have the suspension mode select option on your car. Because if you didn't it would just be one setting all the time. To me I can feel a noticeable difference between the modes. Normal being the best while Sport mode can be a bit bumpy and bouncy on bad roads.

[@poloawgtivw9550]

Thank y very much...and one last question.I think y said it to the video but just to be sure...after the installation no error code in dashboard, correct?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

@polo aw gti vw Pleasure👍I have been running the Eibach Pro Kit springs for a year now, zero errors or issues so far so good🤞 If you go with Eibach Sportline which is much lower you will most likely have some errors. Same with H&R springs.

[@shanedude120]

tbh before looks much better than after

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

You mean better than before?🤷‍♂️

[@SangalDigital]

got them for my leon doesnt it drop it more in the front and less in the back like 30mm front and 20/25 back?

[@Lzz4100]

I think it normally drops the back more as the back is usually higher by default.

[@adhilramisur]

Hey bro, I have the same car and installed the same springs however I'm getting some issues. I wanted to speak to you

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Hey man, you can DM me on Instagram: car_crazy_guy_sa

[@LeeNinetyFour]

Does this by any chance affect your maintenance plan ?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

I haven't had any issues with warranty and maintenance plan claims even with the springs installed. VW has seen the car lowered already. But end of the day any and every modification is not 100% warranty or plan safe.

[@oj4249]

Who installed your springs?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Xtreme Motorsport in Northgate, Cape Town

[@kevinaguilar769]

Wheel R18? o R17?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

18

[@ksazubbie]

What does the AW stand for?

[@carcrazyguysa4059]

Its the Chassis code, it defines the model/year of car. For e.g. previous gen cars were the 6C, 6R and 9N3

[@ksazubbie]

@@carcrazyguysa4059 ok cool, thx for the reply. I sold my Golf 7 R at the beginning of 2020 when covid hit. They’re way too expensive for me now so really considering the polo gti as an alternative. Going to go test drive one tomorrow and see how she is. Keep up the great content # subbed

[@sureshannaidoo103]

should of been lower at the front rather than the back....looks abit weird with the back being lower, especially now when you putting passengers at the back. not going to look nice in my opinion

[@aslamkak60]

thats my put off as well, looks ready for take off, should have been the opposite heights but thats how eibach makes them.

[@n0vz64]

Spacers with the springs ?
