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 | ||||

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 |
