FAQs
What vehicles is the KYB RA3948 Coil Spring compatible with?
This coil spring is designed for the front axle of CITROEN C3 Mk2 vehicles manufactured between 2009 and 2016, specifically those with 1.1L, 1.4L, and 1.4L HDi engines. It is compatible with OEM references 5002XX and 5002YA.
Do I need to replace coil springs in pairs?
Yes, it is highly recommended to replace coil springs in pairs (both front springs) to maintain balanced handling and suspension performance. Replacing only one side can lead to uneven ride height and handling issues.
Can I install this spring myself?
Replacing coil springs is a complex and potentially dangerous task that requires specialized tools and knowledge. It is strongly advised to have this work performed by a qualified automotive technician.
What is the benefit of a KYB coil spring?
KYB is a leading manufacturer of suspension components. Their coil springs are designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, aiming to restore or enhance ride comfort, handling, and vehicle stability.
Does this spring affect ride height?
This coil spring is designed to restore the vehicle's original ride height. If your vehicle's front end is sagging due to worn springs, installing this new spring should bring it back to its intended height.
Is this spring suitable for vehicles with air conditioning?
Yes, this KYB RA3948 Coil Spring is suitable for passenger vehicles and LCVs, including those equipped with air conditioning systems.
Troubleshooting
Vehicle sitting lower than before after installation
Ensure the spring is correctly seated in its perches and fully settled. If the issue persists, re-inspect for any damage during installation or consider if the incorrect spring was fitted.
Clunking or rattling noises from the front suspension
Verify that all suspension components, including the spring seats, isolators, and any related hardware, are correctly installed and tightened. Check that the spring is not rubbing against any other parts.
Uneven ride height between left and right front
Confirm that the correct spring was installed on each side and that it is properly seated. Unevenness can also be caused by other worn suspension components on one side.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Compatibility Check: Before installation, verify that your CITROEN C3 Mk2 falls within the 2009-2016 manufacturing year range and is equipped with a 1.1L, 1.4L, or 1.4L HDi engine. Confirm that the OEM references 5002XX or 5002YA are listed for your vehicle's original springs.
Installation: Replacement of coil springs is a safety-critical procedure and should be performed by a qualified mechanic. It involves jacking up the vehicle, removing the wheel, safely compressing the old spring, and installing the new one. Specialized tools, such as spring compressors, are required. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific instructions.
Care: Coil springs require minimal direct care. However, it is good practice to have your suspension system inspected periodically by a professional. This includes checking the springs for any signs of corrosion, damage, or fatigue, as well as inspecting associated components like shock absorbers and bushings. Regular wheel alignments are also recommended after suspension work.
