    Car has 190,800 on the clock now.
    Eibachs are nice, about 30mm drop for a GTI.

    Does anyone know what this is, there are 4 in the box I got with the suspension.

    MK5 Jetta Turbo - Sold
    MK5 Jetta 2.Slow - Until it dies.

    Dust Cap to go over the strut piston where it passes back into the strut body?
    Wild guess? Got a part number?

    At the 12'oclock it says 65210021 - Partnumber ?
    At 6'oclock jx 2011 05 - Production ?

    All are very clean so I guess Lito did not have it installed. The middle is just the right side to fit the Bilstein strut piston.

    Haha, are they rubber? I think they're of my kw's they're to stop the strut travelling so far if you weren't going lower than 40mm (I did )

    Excellent, I could not find a place for them.

    Did the rears today, easier than the front. I had to remodel the right side wheel arch liner as it blocked good access to the strut top bolt.

    Also located a vac leak, I could hear it from outside the car with the bonnet closed. The leak was causing idle issues, would drop to 650rpm for a sec every 30 sec or so. Lots of tape on that one till I can get a proper fix.

    Then I tried to fix a coolant leak, was dripping from the top of a pipe, loosened the clip pushed up and tightened, lets hope it holds.
    Service indicator came on 2000km to go.
