Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Uprated shock absorbers and coil springs
| Diving or dipping of the rear end between pulling vehicle
and trailer can be avoided with the use of uprated shock
absorbers and coil springs on the rear axle. These shock
absorbers and springs can also be retrofitted in many cases by a
Volkswagen workshop, unless of course they were installed
ex-factory. For allocation of the shocks and springs refer to
→ Electronic parts catalogue “ETKA”. |
| Diving or dipping and trailer snaking can also be avoided
with stabilisation aids that can be procured in most European
countries via Volkswagen dealerships and also installed by them. |
