This spring is designed for the rear axle of the VW Golf V (1K1) 3.2 R32 4motion models from 2005-2008. It also cross-references with OEM part numbers VW 1K0511115GE and 1K0511115HS.
Yes, it is strongly recommended to replace coil springs in pairs (left and right) on the same axle. This ensures balanced suspension performance, consistent handling, and even tire wear.
The coil spring has a length of 289 mm, an outer diameter of 112 mm, and a thickness/strength of 112.5 mm.
Typically, coil springs are sold individually without mounting hardware. You may need to reuse existing hardware or purchase new components separately.
Symptoms include a noticeably sagging rear end, uneven ride height, harsh impacts over bumps, excessive body roll during cornering, or visible damage/corrosion on the existing springs.
The KYB Coil Spring Rear RA7114 weighs approximately 1.9 kg.
Ensure springs were installed correctly on both sides and that all suspension components are properly seated and torqued. Re-inspect for any binding or incorrect placement.
Check that spring isolators and any associated hardware are correctly installed. Verify the spring is properly seated in its perches and not shifting during suspension travel.
Confirm the correct part number was used for the vehicle model. Ensure the spring has fully settled, which can take a few hundred miles of driving. Check for other suspension issues that might affect ride height.
Compatibility: This KYB Coil Spring Rear RA7114 is specifically designed for the rear axle of the VW Golf V (1K1) 3.2 R32 4motion models manufactured between 2005 and 2008. It is also compatible with OEM references VW 1K0511115GE and 1K0511115HS. Always verify your vehicle's exact make, model, year, and trim against these specifications before purchasing.
Installation: Installation of suspension components should ideally be performed by a qualified mechanic. This process typically involves safely lifting the vehicle, removing the wheel, disconnecting the shock absorber, and carefully releasing the old spring before installing the new one. Ensure all mounting hardware is torqued to manufacturer specifications. It is highly recommended to replace coil springs in pairs (left and right) for balanced performance.
Care: Coil springs are a passive suspension component and generally require minimal direct care. However, it is advisable to periodically inspect them for signs of corrosion, damage, or stress fractures during routine vehicle maintenance. Keep the surrounding suspension components clean to prevent premature wear.
