Hi there, I'm thinking of lowering my Grand Picasso.

The local distributor here is Singapore says that Eibach no longer makes them. I think otherwise.

From Eibach's UK website, there is information on these springs. Howerever there seems to be a few models to choose from:

E10-22-007-03-22,
E10-22-007-04-22,
E10-22-007-05-22,
E10-22-007-06-22.

I'm confused.

Has anyone here lowered their GP with these springs? Which model is the correct one?

Mine's a 1.6THP auto, btw.

If I am to order online from a UK website, can anyone point me to a good dealer that ships to Singapore?

Merry Christmas!!
Sam

Given the Nil response, I doubt anyone on site has actually done it I'm afraid

Happy new year folks!

Similarly I also thought about it when I fitted the 18" alloys.
Again. My other half has the no gene so it never happened either.
I would live to though

I'm seriously looking into the springs for my 150HDi, just have to get the price off my suspension guru, I'd do them myself but I don't have the required tools. Used to fit Eibachs for a VW dealer years ago.

Hi all, revisiting this thread again!

Has anyone here actually lowered the Grand Picasso?

I am considering ordering the from europe and have them fitted in Singapore.

The eibach ones for the Grand Picasso is -30 front and -10 rear

The H&R one is approx -35 front n rear.

If anyone has fitted the eibach n H&R, I hope to find out if the lowering is even for front and rear for both brands.

Any advice appreciated!
Cheers
Sam

I have decided to get H&R instead. It's 35mm drop all round.

I do not have much passengers or heavy load in the boot.

It's also cheaper than the Eibachs.

Indented, pending shipment.

Don't forget to take some 'before and after' pictures so we can see what it looks like and let us know if the handling changes please.

Happy new year!!

Nope. Parts not arrived. Not done yet. Bumper. Sorry to spoil your Saturday morning!

Ok, here goes, I'm getting the H&R springs, 5 Chassis strengthening bars and poly bushes for the car. Sounds like major works eh?

My car has gone thru 100,000kms! I am wondering if there are any other components that need changing since I'm already doing the springs?

Suspension mountings? Shock Absorbers? anything? I'm clueless now, since the car has been thru 5 year and I don't think anything is amiss.

Any help appreciated!

Sam
