mulkbear Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Remember the car will need a Total alignment check with the lowering kit manufacturers specs or the Passat will handle like a boat and eat tyres ever few thousand miles. Also the Track S Curve (Bump steer) will have to be reset. Also it is advisable to have wheels with a off set of ET 45 if the vehicle is being lowered below vehicle manufactures spec as the vehicle will have accessive "Track-stabilizing steering roll radius" which will cause the vehicle to brake steer (pull to the camber of the road) under heavy braking. Also make sure a good technician (Good knowledge of the V.A.G style multi link suspension) carries out the work on your pride and joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durrsaku Posted May 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Good bit of info. I will not be doing it myself, taking it to a proper VAG technician but not at the dealer. He is also a member here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 When I said I was a VAG technician I might have been exagerating. I do have a couple of hammers and a set of 24" stillsons though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
