How To Adjust your Coilovers on your MK5/MK6 VW! | ECS DIY

[@psiturbo]

The only only reason I bought this brand and design coilovers was because of ECS instructional videos. I bought the 32 point CO, exceptional quality for the price.

I need to learn how to adjust mine on a 2017 Jetta tryna get the perfect ride height not to stiff not to soft just great for street runs

[@auxmike718]

I wish they would do Jetta stuff, too! Oh, and I’m a loyal FCP EURO customer too💪🏼

NIce Vid! whats the sizing on wheel and tires?

[@ecstuning]

@@ecstuning EXCELLENT, THANK YOU!!

[@jeffreycaraballo9128]

How much lowered

[@cjcoleman7372]

I think you just liked saying "full stiff" 😂😂

[@jenny80myles]

I was thinking, I hope they don't get stuck on the lift. :)

[@ryankeyen3156]

Can I use previous front strut mounts with the new coil over?

[@ecstuning]

If they're still in good condition you can, but we HIGHLY recommend replacing them with an OE equivalent or upgrading them. Since they're already out it's the best time to do so

[@vajarrahmat7059]

Does this coilover needed cancellation kit for avoid dash lamp issues?

[@rainjoy0221]

ecs coil-over was installed in Korea 🇰🇷

[@JoshBenitez-tu7pe]

I adjusted my dampening to full stiffness, but I still hit the fenders on bumps. Would helper springs be next step to prevent this?

[@ecstuning]

We do not recommend running helper springs with these coilovers since they weren't designed to have them. It's common for MK5/6 VW's to rub when lowered past a certain point on coilovers. We suggest checking your tire size first and seeing where it's rubbing, as well as rolling your front fenders to help mitigate rubbing.

@@ecstuning I got em on my S4 with 19" rims. I wanna cut my fenders then add some flares but fiberglass it will take time which I don't have a lot of.. Ugh, guess I'll just roll em. I am glad I didn't waste money on helping springs though. Thank you

[@BilboeSwaggins]

I installed these on my BMW f30 and they're awesome but the rears SO bumpy and it's not the damping. I think it's my preload/shock height ratio. The bump stop is almost always hitting the top where the damping adjuster is :(.

[@goatisnice]

Try f80 bump stops they are shorter so the shock has more room to travel before hitting the bump stop

[@grant1430]

Is this the same process on e9x platform?

[@alf3071]

Can the stock coilover be adjusted?

[@ecstuning]

Stock shocks and springs unfortunately cannot be adjusted

[@Shoffty]
