Do you feel the KW Dcc coil overs improve the car over the standard set up?

Tough question as it had the KWs on when I bought it :D .

Before this I has a 2.0 TSI GT roc, it was stock when I bought it, but I fitted H&Rs. Instantly improved the feel of the car, not to mention the look...................................................................but the KWs are miles better than them :clap:

Is the comfort level ok for daily driving?
Any leaks of coilovers so far?
Thanks ;)

No leaks what so ever! For daily driving its far more comfortable than the H&Rs, by a long shot. My only gripe is they're a bit too low for daily, but they are coilovers - it's to be expecxted

Glad to hear that, it means that all the negative feedback of kW is coming from MQB platform.
Definitely the biggest flaw of Scirocco is the huge standard arch gap, which becomes a pain when trying to lower it...
Still, is the coolest model Vw had ever released :)
If only it had a 4wd version, would be the perfect car for me

Couldn't agree more - 4wd and a normal drive height from stock and we wouldn't be in this mess! Oh well

Sad to say, the car has now been sold :cry: .

What a car it was too, I've loved every moment of owning it and has been purchased by a fellow car enthusiast.

After 6 years of scirocco ownership, i'm now left with a 2017 Vauxhall Astra estate diesel, fun!
