Eibach Pro-Street-S Coilovers VW Passat 3G2 CB2 35-60mm 4Motion 14-21

Eibach Pro-Street-S Coilovers for Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2 35-60mm Drop 4Motion (2014-2021) – 35-60 mm Lower, TÜV Approved

This Eibach Pro-Street-S kit replaces the standard springs and dampers on the Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2 (2014-2021) with a height-adjustable coilover set. It lowers the car by approx. 35-60 mm, which sharpens the steering, cuts body roll and closes up the wheel arch gap. The front ride height is set on threaded coilover struts, and the rear has its own height-adjustable spring seat, so each end can be set independently.

The Pro-Street-S uses stainless steel dampers with the damping pre-set by Eibach to suit the springs, which are developed from Eibach's ERS motorsport spring range. The spring seats are made from a polyamide composite, so they will not seize to the threads and the ride height can still be adjusted years later. The result is a firm, controlled car that is still comfortable enough to use every day.

This listing covers 2 versions of the kit for the Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2. They are identical apart from the spring rate, which Eibach matches to the car's maximum axle weight. Most cars need the first option. To check yours, look at the front (1-) and rear (2-) axle weights on the manufacturer's plate and choose the option rated equal to or above them.

Not suitable for: cars with self-levelling suspension. The Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2 30-55mm Drop 2WD 14-21 needs the Eibach Pro-Street-S Coilovers VW Passat 3G2 CB2 30-55mm 2WD 14-21.

Installation

Fitting means removing the original struts, springs and dampers and fitting the Eibach units in their place. We recommend a qualified workshop. A spring compressor is needed to strip down the original front struts. Set the ride height with the wheels off the ground, never use an impact gun on the damper piston rod nut, and torque everything to the manufacturer's figures. A four-wheel alignment is required once the car is at its final ride height. Re-check the height and alignment after the first few hundred miles, once the springs have settled.

Before you start:

• Some fitments need extra original manufacturer parts to complete the installation. Check the fitting instructions for your car before booking the work in.
• If the car has factory electronic damper control, it will store a fault code once the kit is fitted and the adaptive damping will no longer work. A dealer or specialist can clear the code, or fit the matching Eibach Pro-Tronic kit to stop it appearing.

Upgrade Further

Stop the damper fault message with the Eibach Pro-Tronic EDC Cancellation Kit Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2 14-21.

Which axle load option do I need?

Find the manufacturer's plate (VIN plate), usually on the door frame (B-pillar) or under the bonnet. Under the vehicle weights it lists the maximum permitted axle weights: the line starting 1- is the front axle and 2- is the rear. Choose the option rated equal to or above those figures. They are not shown on the V5C.

Will this fit my Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2?

It fits the Volkswagen Passat 3G2 CB2 (2014-2021) with 1.4 TSI 4motion, 2.0 TSI 4Motion, 2.0 TDI 4motion. Check the Fitment section for the exclusions, or use our number plate lookup.

How low will it sit?

Eibach quotes approx. 35-60 mm lower than standard. The exact drop varies from car to car with engine, equipment and tolerances.

Can I adjust the damping?

No, the damping is pre-set by Eibach to suit the springs, so there is nothing to set up. You only adjust the ride height. If you want adjustable damping, look at the Eibach Pro-Street-Multi.

My car has adaptive dampers - will that cause a problem?

The adaptive damping no longer works once the coilovers are fitted, and the car will log a fault. The matching Eibach Pro-Tronic kit stops that fault message appearing.

Do I need an alignment after fitting?

Yes. Eibach requires a full four-wheel alignment once the car is set at its final ride height, and another check after the springs have settled.

Is it road legal in the UK?

Yes. It comes with a TÜV components certificate. Keep the ride height within Eibach's quoted range and tell your insurer about the modification.

Is it covered by a warranty?

Yes, Eibach covers it against defects in materials and workmanship. If a part ever needs replacing, contact us with your vehicle details and order number.
