Suspension - B7 2011 Passat 2.0 TDI Bluemotion Saloon

Post by Taylor71 »

Hi,

Anyone upgraded the suspension on their B7 saloon?
I am finding the suspension very soft and would like something just a little bit stiffer for a firmer ride. Tne wife complains of car sickness, first time ever in 15 years of VAG motors, but all previous cars have been sport models, so I am blaming the sifter suspension. It's not my driving!
Looking for suggestions, do I check out stealer prices for the OEM springs and shocks from the 2.0 TDI Sport, or do I go aftermarket for both springs and shocks?
I am an old man, so not looking to slam it to the floor, I have speed bumps to negotiate, but and inch max shouldn't hurt. I am running stock alloys. Also do not want to spend a small fortune.

Any suggestions anyone? Recomendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
