FAQs

What is the typical lowering range for this kit?

The Bilstein B14 PSS Coilover Kit allows for a flexible and individual lowering of your vehicle by up to 50 mm.

Is this kit suitable for daily driving?

Yes, while engineered for sporty handling and track use, the kit can be used for daily driving. However, be aware that the ride will be firmer than a stock suspension.

Do I need an alignment after installing coilovers?

Yes, a professional wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any adjustable suspension components like coilovers to ensure proper handling and prevent premature tire wear.

What is the warranty on Bilstein coilovers?

Bilstein typically offers a limited manufacturer's warranty. Please refer to the specific warranty documentation provided with your product or contact Bilstein customer support for detailed information.

Can I adjust the damping settings with this kit?

The Bilstein B14 PSS kit is designed with fixed damping settings optimized for its performance characteristics. It does not feature external damping adjustment.

What tools are needed for installation?

Installation requires standard automotive hand tools, a torque wrench, spring compressors (if required by specific vehicle), and specific tools for ride height adjustment. Professional installation is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Uneven ride height between corners

Ensure all adjustment collars are set correctly and uniformly. Check for any obstructions or debris on the threaded body. A professional alignment may also resolve minor discrepancies.

Clunking or rattling noises from suspension

Verify that all mounting hardware is tightened to the manufacturer's specifications. Check for loose sway bar links or other suspension components. Ensure no protective boots or dust covers are making contact.

Harsh ride quality

This kit is designed for a sporty ride, which is inherently firmer. However, ensure the ride height is not set excessively low, as this can negatively impact suspension travel and ride comfort. Verify that the correct spring rates and damping settings are appropriate for your driving style.

Difficulty adjusting ride height

Clean the threaded body thoroughly to remove any dirt, grime, or corrosion. Ensure the adjustment collars are properly aligned with the threads. Use the provided adjustment tools carefully.
