Springs

ebit · 16-07-2006, 07:49

Hi,

Need some advice from the gurus here.
Can I use the springs (Eibach MT FEDERN) used in Passat B5.5 for our Superb 1.8T Petrol? (have done some searches and seems like the Passat B5.5 is similar to our Superb.

Thank-you in advance

Unless the part numbers are the same no. More than likely the axle weights will be different.

Not sure about the part number though.
The springs are meant to lower the car and improve handling.

Spot on here, the weight of the car's will be different and therefore you need to get the exact spring for each axle otherwise you could have potential ride problems.
