How to Install Coilovers on a 9n3 VW Polo TDI | The Germanese

[@Thebanditrsa]

Thanks for the video and the help on the install. Will do a launch next time for the vlog😅. Appreciate it to infinity. PS: If I knew earlier that a film will be made then I would've washed the dirty girl🤣🤣

[@GERMANESE]

There's no shame in being a little dirty though lol

[@saalihbooley4630]

Hi I fitted arc coilovers but my top mounts seem to make a rubbery noise any help

[@GERMANESE]

Not sure exactly, we've not had that issue before. Check out Polonation on facebook they might be able to help.

[@saalihbooley4630]

@@GERMANESE I changed the top mounts and fitted new aftermarket and it took the noise away but after 2 weeks the noise came back so I definitely need oem mounts because aftermarket doesn’t seem to be lasting

[@MotoringMayhem]

Cool video 😎👍 Car sits nice.

[@mhlengindlovu8450]

Question: I have the same car as you 1.9 TDI 2010. But my from grill thing is just black without the red round it or the letters TDI on it( almost like a regular polo). Where can I get that grill done bro it looks nice?

[@GERMANESE]

That's just a polo 9n3 GTI grill they come with the red from factory and we changed the badge from GTI to TDI

[@mhlengindlovu8450]

@@GERMANESE Makes sense I’ve been searching online and all I could find being sold was the GTI grill. Would you please tell me how you changed it from GTI to TDI on the factory grill?

[@GERMANESE]

The letters clip out and we went on down to China town and just bought the T and D letter

Hows the ride quality and height compared to the JOM bluelines? I want to buy FK Coillies, Had JOM Bluelines before and the ride was not 100%

[@GERMANESE]

To our Knowledge the Ride is very similar the FKs come with smaller springs all round compaired to the JOMs so i think they FK's are going to be a bit stiffer but thats the case with any coilovers you buy down in SA unless you spend 15K plus

[@Bjm365]

Try H&R ultra low springs (50mm drop). Ride quality is far much better than coilovers and the look is sick hot 🔥 - price round about R6k. Otherwise for adjustability there's H&R coilovers which cost about R12k, then you can get almost stock comfort at reasonably low ride👌🏽 For in between m told there's BC coilovers🥴

Hi think I'm a bit late on this,don't know if I will get a reply.i installed a set of fks on my 9n3 and it drove perfect. I then removed the helpers. Ever since removing the helpers the springs are knocking against the strut. Any advice please

[@raymondoctober7433]

Yess buddy quick question I want to by a set of coilovers fk or arc which one is better and give more lows

[@GERMANESE]

Hard to say but the FK springs are smaller to our knowledge

[@polo9n3worldwide39]

jom

[@griftor2345]

My driveshafts rub! Any tips?

[@GERMANESE]

C notch or raise your ride

[@griftor2345]

@@GERMANESE it’s barely lowered atm :/ I’ll try some other drop links and see

[@lewisbloomfield2679]

Wheel spacers???

[@GERMANESE]

Nope just the OEM as is

[@geoffprent3266]

Tell me im about to buy the style quip purple line coilovers... Will it fit on my polo vivo

[@GERMANESE]

Hi there the people selling the unit should be able to tell you if its for that model but from what we know, the polo vivo and polo 6 have the same setup so it should fit

[@geoffprent3266]

@@GERMANESE thanks a lot

[@calvinperumal]

Hi guys a little help please ! The guy that fitted my FK coilovers didn't put the drop links back apparently he says it's not needed is this true ?

[@GERMANESE]

No it is not needed

[@delmaineballas4855]

Do you prefer JOM and FK ?

[@GERMANESE]

Two of our members were on FKs and then the one went to air suspension, so would say FK definitely.

[@nuhrsalie7130]

Question? Did you remove the adjusters at the back to get the car that low ? Because i have a 2door tdi with the same coilies but the back is much higher then this

[@polo9n3worldwide39]

i hope you bought jom that time

[@vasileionut4763]

Handling?

[@GERMANESE]

A lot better, car feels more planted

[@thegrish4276]

He could've settled for a lowering kit if he wanted to drive that height.

[@ottwww]

Link to the coil overs pleaseeee??

[@GERMANESE]

He got them from a company called cartel mods, and his located in Cape Town.

Mooi vlog Rickie 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@Skidderino]

Awesome video

[@hmhm8990]

Awesome video bra….. but go invest in some specialist tools….. substitute your block of wood for the hub splitter tool…. Span polo graaf there I c….Hit up spec auto tools jhb.

[@GERMANESE]

We probably would invest in one but we are not really working on cars as much 🙏 Good to know there is a specific tool for it 😂 We made the cave men proud with the wood block technique

[@charlesmuller667]

Yes buddy How is the fk coilovers driving. Is it bouncy or stiff?

[@GERMANESE]

Bit more on the stiff side but not in a bad way

[@nazirjones3608]

GermaneseCPT,that time you're asking me "What do you mean?"I think you don't know what I'm talking about.
