• Distància a terra: Be mindful of reduced ground clearance. Exercise caution over speed bumps, steep driveways, and uneven terrain to prevent damage to the vehicle's undercarriage.
• Període d'entrada: Allow for a short break-in period (approximately 500-1000 km) for the springs to settle. Re-check wheel alignment after this period if any issues are observed.

Manteniment

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Regular inspections are recommended.

• Inspecció visual: Periodically inspect the springs for any signs of damage, cracks, corrosion, or deformation.
• Neteja: Keep the springs and surrounding suspension components clean from dirt, salt, and debris, especially in harsh weather conditions.
• Comprovació de fixacions: During routine vehicle maintenance, ensure all suspension fasteners are properly torqued. Loose fasteners can lead to noise or component failure.
