Sachs Coilover

Anyone here used Sachs's coilover before?

How's the ride quality? I think they are the OEM Coilover for AC Scnitzer

TIA

If you want a set of Coilover not very progressive, just merely for every day use and no track days...this is the one!! It will providing you with the proper ride comfort which won't be sacrifice the ride quality in trading for a set of comfortable C/O without too much funny noises after installation......So, ask yourself what you need, Bro!! If you to get a set of C/O with very stiff ride, this is not the one you should be going after!!

I'm more onto ride comfort as you know the roads in HK sux!

I used KW V2 before and it's too stiff for my taste. So I'm considering PSS10 or the Sachs C/O. Thanks for your advice. Btw, did you just change your exhaust? Think I saw you once on da road... Hehe....

If KW V2 is too stiff for you, you should consider Sachs seriously.....PSS10 is definitely the top quality Suspension but if you have complaint for V2, PSS 10 will be even more stiff even though, you adjust as the softest setting!! Think seriously Bro especially the road condtitions in our city together with the recent rainy days damaged the road even worsen than b4!!

I didn't change the Exhaust and I believe you have saw the other member who is driving identical AW 335, E92 like me....yup, he did change the Exhaust as what he told me the other day!

My car came with SACHS coilovers and the comfort level is comparable to stock. However, i think it might be a bit too soft, I am finding that when I go through uneven roads at a faster pace, I hear a bang coming from my rear suspension. I am not sure whether it is my suspension thats making the noise or otherwise. Suffice it to say, I don't drive fast over these bumps anymore.
