DRC disconnection when fitting coilovers
Posted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 7:35 am
I'm tempted to buy a set of used KW V3 coilovers for my Avant and i'm wondering if those of you that have fitted KW's can answer a couple of questions for me?
Looking at page 9 of the fitting guide - http://docs.kwsuspension.de/eah68610061.pdf - it looks like after isolating the DRC reservoirs under the back of the car I will need to depressurize each corner using an Adaptor called VAS 6209/1 and then after disconnecting the original damper I will need to seal the end of the hydraulic line with 'the supplied sealing plug'?
Am I understanding this correctly? If so where can I buy/borrow the adaptor VAS 6209/1?
Are the sealing plugs supplied with the KW kit? - the secondhand kit I am interested in doesn't seem to include them.
Any other tips on fitting coilovers would be very welcome
Cheers,
JPH
