Default PSS10

Well, it's time to do something about my suspension so I have been doing some research. I've had a good read through the posts and have found a tonne of valuable information about Bilstein PSS9, but nothing on the new PSS10 for our cars. Has anyone had any experience with PSS10? The reviews I've read about the PSS10 tell me that that's the way to go - for me at least - despite the fact that there is signifantly more experience on the forum with the PSS9. Not only are the PSS10 far easier to adjust (no tools or jacks required) they are also cheaper.

Any thoughts would be appreciated?

The 10 is replacing the 9 in every model. The 10 has more "feelable" detents for the different damper settings.

IIRC, the 10 adjuster are in the same place as those on the 9 so if you need a jack for one, you'll need it for the other. No tools needed for either one.

You mean it has detents you can actually feel?! The rears on the PSS9s are nearly useless; I just go by sight.

Anyway, real detents will be a nice change...

You might want to take a look at KW variant 3's. State of the art compared to the PSS10.

Ziad,

I am like you - in the middle of nowhere....

Try the JIC setup - It is WAY WAY beyond what the Pss9/10 set up will ever be - and Japanses made too! and way better value...

If you need a link - try here:

Z,

It CAN have its advantages (not sure yet - I will let you know)

And with the US dollar swan diving into the Chinese Economy - the pricing is AWESOME!!

I really really rate them - But I am merely a punter...
