I watched this video and changed my coil spring in 20 minutes what a lifesaver it was watching this first

I was able to replace the rear coil springs on my 2007 Passat with no issues. The trickiest part was getting the bolt back in the lower control arm. The rear of my car now sits at the proper height again. Thank you very much for this very informative video.

Thanks for this, saved me the cost of a spring compressor. Just did my Tiguan and worked a treat. The only issue I had was aligning the swing arm when jacking it back up but got there in the end with the help of a lump hammer. 👍🏼

Great Video! I had a question, My 2010 Mercedes CLS 219 had both its rear coil springs replaced recently as they were fractured. Following replacement, the rear ride height seems to be a few centimetres more than it was previously. Is this normal? In time, will the rear ride height go back to how it was on the old springs that were replaced? Many thanks in advance.

Thanks man - going to attempt Eibach lifting springs in my Škoda Yeti 🎉

What kind of lubricant did you put on the bottom of that spring? I’m thinking of changing my original rear struts and front struts and adding a 2 inch Bilstein coil spring kit. I’m assuming the installation would be the same?

Always wondered how to put a stand in the same spot you need to use the jack

Great video! I’m going to try to replace the rear passenger spring on my 2008 2.5L Jetta. Is there anything else I should think about replacing? I checked my car today and noticed how low it was to one side. Took off the tire and realized the spring was broken lol

@Mark B No. Nothing. Was a straight forward replacement. Both sides must be taken apart at once and once the entire axle is lowered the springs can be removed easily. The level sensor also needs to be unbolted.

Good video but there is kinda issue. Please tighten the nut only a little thight, and apply the final amount of torque when the car is back on the ground and at final level, because it can happen, that you "turn" the bushing out of the rear shock. Greetings from Germany !

Well I hit the like 👍🏾 button for good luck 🍀

Where did you find the spring I can’t find it no where

I was wondering if you could use a spring compressor or a couple of them to do this without disconnecting the arm ?

thx for the tips, you saved me like 210$ :D

How do you know which spring to order if there are no colour markings on your existing springs

My golf has a rear sway bar, should I unbolt that as well?

2:19 What size socket is on that air gun may I ask?

My back rear spring just broke, but I’m unsure if I need to repair the entire assembly or just the spring. Do springs usually fail before shock absorbers? Or should I replace it all just to be safe.

That sounds like it’s probably okay. It’ll depend on gearing. If your speed corresponds to RPM I wouldn’t worry about it, if your RPMs jump and your speed doesn’t then you may have problems
