@julian UK. Yes you should always align the vehicle after the suspension
has been taken apart.
When tightening the bolts, what does the 20Nm + 180 degrees mean?
Great videos thanks for posting. Not sure if anyone knows…when it comes
to the MK6 GTI vs GLI much different in terms of suspension? Also I would
think you can also remove the hub for the extra “movement” needed to get
the strut out? Again great work/great channel. Really appreciate your work
sir. Really liked the direct injection carbon build up vid as well. Good
info..
Hi again, I’m about to do this install this weekend. Should I be replacing
any bolts or am i ok to reuse everything? My MKVII Gti only has 200miles
on it.
You have Drivers Gear (DG) springs for sale on the website also, are they
good for the MK7 GTI also?

So after installing the springs, what will the ride quality be like before
getting an alignment?
You guys should make a video APR turbo muffler delete 😉
Nice video btw
Excellent video – such a great service to DIY and VW enthusiasts. Thank
you!
How is the alignment possibility of a MK7 Golf after lowering in regards to
tire wear? I have owned cars that can be lowered 2″ without alignment and
does not affect tire wear (97 Pontiac Sunfire) as well as cars that had
some major difficulty with just a 1.2″ drop ( 05 Volvo V50) that would eat
the inner side like crazy. Ideally I would love to drop my MK7 Golf, but
do not want to lower the tire life from 4 yrs to a few months for just an
inch drop like I had in the Volvo. Please honestly tell me, can MK7 Golfs
be properly aligned with moderate lowering (1-2″) . I don’t mind a
shortened tire life of say 1-50% but the 75% plus really cut into the
wallet.
Please i want a tuto to change commom daytime running lamp to led in Golf
MKVII with headlights without xenon.
Sorry for bad english
Would I need all these tools for a vw gti mkv 08 like are all the bolts all
the same as my car to this car?
Do you need to do an alignment after changing the springs ?
What size was that triple square tool please!???
Hi, Thanks for the video! Would it be the same installation for 1.4tsi as
well as 2.0tdi?
Thanks
The only question I have really is about the inner axle bolts. So there is
6 you pull and then gives you some room to drop the lower control arm from
the strut. When those bolts are removed does the axle drop out of the
transmission? When putting everything back together is there anything
special to do to get the axle back in if it drops out? Also should those 6
bolts each side be replaced?
Lol all that work for almost no difference…
where can I buy VWR spring for my GTI MK7?
How much do you think labor is for this? And don’t you need alignment
afterwards?
If they care about comfort then keep the stock springs… There is no
difference in look to the naked eye so you are basically paying for springs
that are blue.
would these lowering springs work for a golf 7 tsi?
do we have to compress the spring?
Our VWR MK7 GTI spring install is up… Check it out.
