Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Got a new set of coilovers on the c4s and am a bit confused on how to raise the ride height. I have an ever so small amount of rub I want to get rid of and want to adjust the front height a smidge up. I had a shop install them, but they did not leave me with the instructions and I cannot find anything online about how to do this and H&R are not being super helpful. Is it just adjusting the spring perch height ( i thought that would also impact pre-load)... I also noticed a hex head protrusion and a allen key bolt on the bottom of the damper, but didn't know if those played in. Any help would be greatly appreciated

POST 2Original post

Are you calling H&R in Washington State or thier EU number. The one up near Seattle has always been helpful.. But post covid who knows...
