FAQs

What does 'wire diameter' mean for a coil spring?

The wire diameter refers to the thickness of the metal used to create the spring coil. It is a critical specification that affects the spring's stiffness and load-carrying capacity.

Why must coil springs be replaced in pairs?

Replacing coil springs in pairs on the same axle ensures that the vehicle's weight is distributed evenly. Installing only one new spring can lead to an unbalanced suspension, affecting handling, stability, and tire wear.

Can I install this Febi Bilstein coil spring myself?

Installation of coil springs requires specialized tools (like spring compressors) and significant mechanical knowledge due to the high forces involved. It is recommended to have a qualified professional perform the installation for safety reasons.

What is the typical lifespan of a coil spring?

The lifespan of a coil spring can vary greatly depending on driving conditions, road quality, and vehicle load. However, they are designed to last for many years, but can fail prematurely due to impact or fatigue.

How do I confirm if this part fits my car?

You should use the vehicle make and model selection tool provided on the website. Additionally, you can compare the OEM reference numbers (AUDI 1K0411105AK, SKODA 1K0411105AK, VW 1K0411105AK) with your vehicle's original part numbers.

What are the dimensions of this coil spring?

This coil spring has a length of 343 mm, an outer diameter of 140 mm, and a wire diameter of 12 mm.

Troubleshooting

Vehicle sits lower on one side after installation.

Ensure the coil spring was replaced as a pair on the same axle. Verify the spring is correctly seated at both the top and bottom mounts.

New spring is making noise.

Check that the spring isolators (top and bottom rubber/plastic seats) are correctly installed and in good condition. Ensure the spring is properly seated and not rubbing against any other components.

Poor ride quality or handling.

Confirm the correct spring part number was used for the vehicle. Ensure all suspension components related to the spring installation were checked and are in good working order. A wheel alignment may be necessary after suspension work.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Before purchasing, always use the vehicle make and model tool to verify fitment for your specific car. This coil spring is intended for the front axle and is compatible with OEM part numbers AUDI 1K0411105AK, SKODA 1K0411105AK, and VW 1K0411105AK.

Setup: Installation of a coil spring is a safety-critical procedure that requires specialized tools and mechanical expertise. It is strongly recommended that this part be installed by a qualified mechanic. The spring must be compressed to be fitted into place, and proper seating is essential. Always replace coil springs in pairs on the same axle. Failure to do so can result in uneven handling, suspension imbalance, and potential safety risks.

Care: Coil springs are typically maintenance-free. However, they are subject to wear and tear from road conditions. Regular visual inspection of suspension components during routine maintenance is advised to check for signs of damage, rust, or fatigue. Ensure that any surrounding suspension components are also in good condition.
