VW Corrado, Scirocco, Eos, Arteon and EuroVan Coilovers

Volkswagen built coupes, a convertible and vans that fall outside the Golf family. The right kit depends on details that are easy to miss, like the engine in a Corrado or whether an Arteon has DCC (electronic adjustable dampers). We carry eighteen sets of coilovers for the VW Corrado, Scirocco, Eos, Arteon and EuroVan, and a few more vans, from KW, Bilstein, Solo-Werks, Ksport and BC Racing.

Not sure about DCC or the engine? Call 1-800-460-9106.

Animated illustration. It shows where coilovers sit on a car, not your exact kit. Depending on the car and the kit, coilovers can lean forward or back or stand straight up, and some cars use a separate spring and shock in the rear. Your ride height depends on the kit and how it is set up.

Picking a kit for these VWs

Check these three things first.

DCC dampers

Which KW kit fits an Arteon or Eos depends on whether it has DCC (Dynamic Damper Control).

Engine

Corrado kit names list the 16V, G60 or VR6 engine.

Strut type

Bilstein's Scirocco kit only fits cars with rebuildable struts; its Arteon kit is for a 55mm front strut.

Before you buy: what Corrado, Scirocco and Eos owners run into

Here is what Corrado, Scirocco and Eos owners report most often in forums, recalls and service bulletins, and what each one means for your coilovers.

Worn rear axle beam bushings
Corrado, 1988 to 1995

Owners on The-Corrado.net report rear axle bushings corroded or flagged at inspection around 90,000 to 120,000 miles, and one said handling and steering felt much nicer after replacing them and the front bushings. Worn beam bushings let the rear shift, upsetting alignment and handling even with new coilovers.

Before you install: Check the rear beam bushings for cracks and side to side play before the install, and replace both at once. Owners favor OE rubber for comfort.

Front top mounts and spring seats wear out
Corrado 16V, G60 and VR6, 1988 to 1995

Owners on The-Corrado.net report aftermarket front top mounts wearing out within a few thousand miles, and one blames the heavy nose. A 1995 VR6 owner traced a clunk to an aftermarket spring winding around VW's smaller 1995 seat, which he fixed with the earlier seats. A weak mount or seat can clunk and sag, even with new coilovers.

Before you install: Use the kit's own top mounts or new quality OE type mounts and bearings. On a 1995 VR6, check the spring fits the top seat.

Corrado history

The Corrado, presented in August 1988

Volkswagen's own history page says: "The Corrado, presented in August 1988, was positioned above the Scirocco II."

  1. 1988
    FeaturesThe same page says the new car's features included a "G60 engine with scroll-type supercharger".

DCC, Corrado engines, Scirocco struts and the Caddy

My Arteon has DCC. Which kit fits?

KW lists a 2WD kit (2019 to 2023) and a 4motion kit (2019 to 2021) "with Dynamic Damper Control (includes cancellation kit)". No kit covers a 2022 or 2023 4motion with DCC; call us. Bilstein's kit name says "Without Electronic Suspension".

Do VW Corrado coilovers fit both the VR6 and the G60?

KW's kit names the 16V, G60 and VR6. Ksport's names the G60 only. The Bilstein and Solo-Werks kit names do not list an engine, so ask us.

What does "Rebuildable Struts Only" mean on the Bilstein Scirocco kit?

Bilstein's kit only fits cars with rebuildable struts. Call us and we will check your car.

Does the Caddy kit include rear parts?

No. Solo-Werks names it "FRONT STRUTS ONLY".

Is there a BC kit for the Corrado or Scirocco?

Not for the Corrado. For the first Scirocco, BC's 1974 to 1984 Golf Rabbit FWD + Scirocco (Extreme by Default) kit is on our VW Golf and GTI page. The one BC kit on this page is the 2025+ ID Buzz LWB RWD, BR.

Where are the Golf, Jetta and Passat kits?

They have their own pages. See the links below.
