Hi all,
Ditching my knackered Nivomat with Bilstein B4 and Kilen springs plus all new top mounts etc all round. I had a thought. On the Nivomat rear springs, the lower spring retaining cup is different to the non-Nivomat. The cup on the non-Nivomat appears to be about half the height to the Nivomat ones. The non-Nivomat rear spring retainers are crazy at around £131 per side! The Nivomat ones however are around £14. Do you have to use the non-Nivomat rear spring retaining cups when changing to non-Nivomat springs? Answers appreciated. |

Hi NewbieV70T5
I guess your T5 is FWD? Can you point me to a source or part number for the Nivomat spring caps? Thanks, Steve
