Koni Special Active shocks are really good on these cars if looking for a fast road/light track set up. I previously put them on a 993 so opted to get them on the 996 too.
Koni Orange (STR.T) works fine with Voghtland springs and is not overly expensive.
Boas, tive um Golf V durante 12 anos. Usei molas de rebaixamento + amortecedores sport (koni), usei suspensão original com molas de rebaixamento e por fim usei coilovers.
I have Koni reds. I just wanted to rid of the wafty ride, and it fixed it up. It is a little too firm now for my liking but still better than original
Eu tenho um Audi A4 B8 SLine, comprei dois amortecedores na Audi originais SACHS foram €180 os dois!!!
Looks fine, and acts like a shock. That shop just trying to scam you. Bump stops looking torn, but that's fine. Use them as long as possible, eventually upgrade to Koni Yellows if they make it for the Mini's.
It is quite a hassle to change the fronts (the rear shocks however are a joke to change) so I would personally just go with the OEM = Sachs--as I did two months ago--if you can afford it and/or save up for it.
I switched to Koni special actives (red) and like them more than stock
These seem like great value compared to the non-adjustable Koni Active Select’s I just self-fitted to my MY22 MIC Y ($1250 AUD). Same high speed wallow you mention and mismatch with the stiff springs.
They used cheap shit quickstruts. Buy new OEM springs and Koni shocks and it will be back to normal.
