[s-cars] eibach springs for the Avant

[Bill Mahoney]

Okay went out and crawled around in the parking lot and report that the
fronts are EW1527001VA and rears are EW1517002HA.  

Simple enough but according to eibach.de these would be for a C4 quattro
automatic avant with air conditioning.

As I read their list, the 1529 kit is the same as the 1530 kit but why two
part numbers for kits that have the same springs?

Who knows?

Bueller?

I toldja its crazy.

HTH

Bill~behind every problem there's a German~M

 

Ps- again, car is level, NO spacers and provide a good everyday ride to my
buttOmeter.  For the track, rear coilovers are really needed IME.  So, what
do I need to make these into coilovers?  Anybody?

How long ago did you purchase this set? Can  you give me the numbers just 

for the heck of it? I have been reading Charlie's site and I too am 

confused.

 

Thanks again Bill!
