    Suspension

    Hello,

    So i am looking at upgrading the suspension on my car and I know from Volvo Directly that I have the Nivomat self leveling suspension in the rear, its not the 4C suspension as my car is an 03 and i have no buttons by my AC but have people replaced these before and if so what with ? As i know that I can get BC Racing Coilovers but i can also get a setup such as Bilstein Shocks and Lowering springs and didnt know what my best option is and what limitations there could be due to current set up.

    Cheers

    Hi you do have to cut up the original front struts as the front Konis are inserts and they fit into the STD struts ,
    Idid order from auto doc as they told me they had them in stock and they would have been £50 cheaper for the pair, but they did not have stock , they did not tell me for 5 days, it took another 5 days to get the cash back in the bank,
    so I ordered from ebay in Germany m took 3 days by dhl,

    I had a set of BC Racing on my S60 and I loved them. So much nicer through the corners and about the same comfort level as the Volvo Sport suspension, on 3 clicks from the softest setting.
