Rear Coil Spring 320 mm, 55 mm Diameter – VW e-up! – Febi 186242
This coil spring fits the rear axle of the Volkswagen e-up!. It is 320 mm long, with a wire diameter of 10.75 mm and a 55 mm outer diameter.
Coil springs hold the car at the right ride height and carry its weight over bumps. Over time they sag, and road salt can rust the coating until a coil snaps, usually at the bottom end. Signs of a tired or broken spring are a clunk over bumps, a corner that sits lower than the others, and uneven tyre wear. Check both rear springs when one is replaced.
