Front too low- Standard shocks

[PJ_TDi]

To be fair id say it looks normal. Maybe a fraction low on the front but nothing too much.

Are you sure that the springs are for the TDI and not a petrol though?

Well, it was too low when i bought it, and one of the springs was broken. They are Springs for the tdi yeah - is there any way of checking for sure? Cheers

Were the springs bought from a Seat dealer or somewhere else?

 

[PJ_TDi]

Midland VW ordered them in. A vag specialist in the midlands.

The only thing that I can think of is that they are not genuine springs....patent parts maybe?

dampers = shock absorbers...? same difference i thought

The springs are the parts that absorb the shocks/bumps and the dampers dampen the springs so that the wheel does not bounce and loose contact with the road.

These are for the different sport models. The only way to know what was on the car, is to ring a Dealer with your VIN.
