Product Details

These MTS Technik Street Series coilovers fit the 1988-1997 Volkswagen Passat B3/B4 Estate (3A5/35I). The Street Series is the default setup MTS engineers suggest, with a wide range of lowering adjustment. It combines comfort and stiffness for spirited driving that stays usable every day.

MTS coilovers let you adjust the suspension height to your preference and to road conditions. The firmer suspension makes the car more predictable to drive.

With these MTS Volkswagen Passat B3/B4 coilovers you can reset the ride height when you swap between larger summer wheels and smaller winter wheels.

Standard Features:

  • 2-year warranty with no mileage limit.
  • Corrosion-resistant components.
  • Twin-tube dampers for stable damping.
  • Gas pressure on the hydraulic fluid stops the oil from foaming, so the dampers keep working under continuous hard use.
  • The thread and its wide adjustment range let you set the ride height precisely.
  • hexaCOIL spring perch for easier height adjustment.
  • Shock bodies have a double layer of gold zinc and the adjusters are anodized aluminum, for corrosion resistance.
  • Coilover springs made by Eibach.

  • If the vehicle is equipped with a stock sport suspension, the lowering mentioned in this catalogue will be relatively lower.
  • During the installation of suspension set the clearance between tire/rim and suspension strut shall be checked. The minimum allowed gap is 5mm (0.2 inch). Otherwise use certificated wheel spacers.
  • Set includes 2x upper "camber plates" on the front axle.

  • For easier height adjustment, we recommend removing the rear adjustment, changing the position of the spring plate and reinstalling the adjustment on the car.
