MountainPass Performance Comfort Coilovers

[MountainPass]

I installed my coils this weekend and noticed something interesting one of the rear shocks did not extend when I cut the white strap. Is this normal? View attachment 792438

That doesn't concern me, but if you notice something weird about the damper when you're driving just give us a shout and we are more than happy to help.

@MountainPass Sent ya an email with an ongoing spring issue with my new coilovers I got installed.

Are those KW adjusters or something like that? Please tell me more about this:

Still slogging through a mountain of emails from the weekend but I will get back to you today.

@Ruffles, yes, they are rebound extensions for the front.

Interesting. I never thought about that being a possibility.

If it works on our dampers, please let us know!

Yes, that would be great to know

They work well only thing is no real feedback since I don't think front dampers have detents for rebound. I might try to shorten them a bit and see if that helps.

The "detents" are very subtle, I imagine they will get lost in that cable extension. That being said, we know how many "clicks" there are in a full rotation so you could still figure it out with reasonable accuracy!

YIKES! $49/ EACH? Convenience comes at a cost.

How many clicks is that 5?

How many clicks is that 5?

I had about 14 clicks from full stiff to full soft for the front rebounds. Easiest ones (out of front and rear compression and rebound) to adjust because of that, even though clicks were subtle.

6!

Need to set final ride height, but enjoying this so far.

That looks great! What wheels are those I just realized why your Y looks different, the rocker panels and fender lips are painted or wrapped white.

Finally got around to dialing in the ride height and suspension settings after getting them installed at EAS. After a month I’ll head over to Auto Union Tuning to get it aligned.

Btw, my Mod 3 also has MPP Coilovers since when they first came out. Now it’s at 67k miles and still riding like new.

Looks awesome, any issues with the coilovers? Squeaks etc?
