Product Details

Unlimited individuality for the street and bred from race technology.
Independently adjustable compression & rebound damping.

These KW Suspension Variant 3 coilovers fit the 2015-2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG.

Our engineers have developed a sporty yet refined setup for your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG that allows you to individually adjust the compression & rebound damping independently of each other. To ensure we provide the perfect suspension setup we test them on our KW 7-post rig, as well as extensive driving tests on country roads, highways and even on the Nurburgring Nordschleife.

Sports car drivers, tuners and series manufacturers such as Alpina, MTM, Manthey and Oettinger use it for its damping, finish and durability.

Advanced Technology bred on the racetrack, built for the road.

It is based on our long experience as a suspension manufacturer and supplier for international motorsports, such as the ADAC GT Masters touring car series, FIA GT1, FIA GT3, International GT Open, WTCC, VLN, the legendary ADAC Zurich 24h Nurburgring race, as well as IMSA American LeMans Series, now United Sports Car Championship, SCCA Pro Racing and Pirelli World Challenge in North America.

KW V3 coilovers share technology with our race coilovers developed in our KW Competition program, they can be adjusted independently in compression and rebound damping.

The perfect suspension setup for maximum driving pleasure

The patented KW-valve technology for separate adjustment of rebound and compression damping allows you to individually setup your suspension. The adjustable KW bottom valve adjusts the low-speed range of the compression level in twelve clicks.

You don't need any adjusting tools because of the patented compression adjuster at the lower end of the stainless steel housing. The adjustable compression damping with its twelve exact clicks allows you to manually influence body roll, without having to change the spring rate which optimally matches the rebound.

With the individually adjustable rebound setup of the KW V3 coilovers, you can directly influence the handling and comfort with its precise click adjustment. The rebound valves of the KW twin-tube dampers on the upper end of the piston rod will be adjusted via an integrated adjustment wheel or a twist-adjustment wheel which is included with the coilover kit.

By increasing the rebound force via the adjustment wheel, the body movements are reduced and adjusts the pitch and roll behavior of the vehicle giving you more stability at increased corner speed. If you change for example the wheel / tire combination (approved by the car manufacturer) to larger wheels, then with a KW V3 coilovers you will be able to adjust the car's handling perfectly.

High quality, individual and durable

The KW V3 Coilover Kit and every single damper are subjected to extensive quality tests during production in order to meet the high standards of our KW quality management. This extensive testing is what enables us to give up to five years warranty on our KW V3 coilover when installed at one of our KW specialist dealers. KW coilover struts are made of stainless steel and 100% rust-free with an unlimited life time.

Therefore the operation of the continuous lowering via the dirt-resistant KW trapezoid thread and the KW composite collar is also not affected after years. By the individual lowering with its continuous adjustment range, you can emphasize the sportiness of your vehicle visually.

Structure and function of a KW coilover kit

A KW coilover with its 100 percent corrosion resistant stainless steel strut housings can be height adjusted at all times. With our dirt resistant trapezoid thread and durable composite height adjuster collar adjustment is possible after many years of driving pleasure.

The polyamid composite collar:

In contrast to anodized adjustable spring seats made of aluminum, at KW we use a durable polyamid composite collar with a stainless steel insert. So even with the influence from dirt particles, such as brake dust or sand grains, the polyamide composite collar will not be damaged.
