Please note
All modifications must be performed by authorized mechanics and in accordance with applicable local regulations. Ensure all parts are secured with the correct torque (refer to the vehicle's service manual) both before and after installation; loose nuts, bolts, or blocks can cause noise. Do not use an impact wrench during installation, as this can loosen or damage the product. Check the clearance between tires and suspension (minimum 4 mm; otherwise wheel spacers are needed, note: this is not sufficient for axles with a torsion bar and trailing arm). Regular maintenance of the coilover suspension is recommended: a little WD40 every 3-4 months will keep it smooth and clean and extend its lifespan.
Check fitment
Always check the original OEM part number, year of manufacture, engine code, and vehicle version before ordering, as differences may exist per version. If you are unsure whether this part fits your vehicle, please feel free to contact us before purchasing.
