Kw V1 adjusting ride height...

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me how to adjust the ride height on KW V1's? I'm losing tyre walls on the rear at an alarming rate.

The manual is pretty vague, somebody told me you might need spring compressors? I was hoping it was a turn a dial type deal...

Jack the car up, wheel off,

 

You will see threaded collars on each strut, winding them anti-clockwise will raise the car, winding the clockwise will lower the car.

You should have a C spanner which locates in the notches on the collars to rotate them.

Obviously you use both spanners to loosen the two collars apart to do the above sequence.

Loosen the small Z-screw that holds the "plastic" ring and rotate it to adjust the height - remember to thighten the Z-screw again (make sure you don't thight it to hard, as it can damage the threads.)
