Suspension: 70: - Suspension part number question

heyskull · Mar 4th, 2013, 08:48

On my quest to find what suspension is fitted to my car and why it is so high at the front.
The car is registered as a March 2000 Phase 1 2.4 (140BHP) SE Classic Estate
I am trying to trace these part numbers.
This is a label on the OS front suspension strut.
P942017
T103417

it also has markings of 930L and R2

Sadly I cannot see any markings on the springs

The OS suspension parts look a lot cleaner than the NS or maybe it is just the fact that the road is dirtier on the NS!

Thanks

No idea on the part numbers but if your car did have nivomats on the rear and they were swapped for standard shocks but left with nivomat springs it would be sitting low at the back as nivomat springs are much weaker than the standard spring.

In the front the spring set the height. Maybe someone fitted springs from an XC or an TDI which are harder and the car stays higher.

In the back if you have nivomat then the nivomat controls the height, otherwise the spring. If you use nivomat with regular springs you have an XC70
