You have more knowledge than most uk garages, amazing, your dad must be so proud of you. Keep it up👌👍
That does not take much , have you seen the type of person a dealership takes on these days ? No interest and the jobs yours .Most of the so called technicians have all the gear {snapon} an no idea across the board .They are good as oil and filter changes though.And do not even get me going on bodyshops, some even after 20 years can not even use a screwdriver , and you think i am kidding
@@LOTPOR0402 exactly 👍
That's an honest and fair review. I like that you don't just say they're 'The best thing since sliced bread' just because they sent you them to try.
Norfolk!!! Yeeeeeeah!!! Great channel, keep up the great work 👍 thanks for the video
I had good results with their connecting rods for Volvo B200/230 Engines. Measured fine on the measuring machine and are holding 2bar boost on E85 up to 7200/min without any problems for 30.000km now.
Good to see the channel is getting supported already by companies wanting you to review their products ! Good video !
Fair play. Old school change. No ramps. Love it.
Exactly mate
Cool car, I had a mk 2 16v years ago with koni shocks and springs, man I could throw it around, never once felt like it was going to let go....and I drove it hard.
😂🤣😂 Bad roads in Norfolk, nice to see nothing has changed in the last 30 years then 🙂 another great video Beth 👍👊👊👊🙂
Once again,a good post. Glad to see you handle the complete job yourself. Another atta girl from me 🙂
Great job changing those struts out by your self.
Oh, I'm very familiar with MaXpeedingRods, I just bought the linkage for it last month, I took it out for a couple of laps and it was fine.👍👍
I had the same issue not being able to get a nut on my Rev9 coilkovers on my MK4. Took a lot of fiddling to find the right combo of stock parts and rev9 parts to get the nut to fit on and the damper adjustment knob XD Good work!
Bought a set of these same brand for my mk4 chassis beetle and was also previously using the JOM coilovers, gotta say i didnt end up using the maxspeed, they looked ok but the dampening didnt seem so great even compared to the used up old ones, i ended up taking out the internal parts and cutting the tubes to make them a little longer (like 1") then just got a set of standard monroe shock inserts and 225lb springs, maybe later on ill look for those adjustable damper inserts like koni
Nice addition to the Golf, great job.
I never install or offer to sell coilovers for/to customers ( warranty , complaints , disappointment ) but I do the alignments for them . You drive 185/14 so not too much issues there but when they come to me it´s a whole other scenario . I can´t comment on good or bad quality . I do however appreciate that company by supporting you .
Marauw! CAT likes the shots from down low.That way you see what he does.
You probably know this by now but this type of coilovers have a tendency to get stiffer when set up to a normal hight and they feel softer when the car runs lower , in other words the spring has a preload for what ever ride hight the brand pre determine and by adjusting the car hight we mess with that pre load making it kinda stiffer when running at normal hight , so if u Lower the car hight the load on the spring is less resulting in a smoother ride .
I was disappointed there was no “ooooh “when you opened the box. Nice looking kit and I will certainly be checking out their website. Cheers
Love a mk2 golf but have to say the corrado felt a better drive all round
Thats a lovely mk2 by the way 😃 love the old cars as ive probably said before on sierra and volvo videos lol 😂
It's great to hear an honest review of them. I've heard a lot about the company recently, and I'll definitely consider them when I can start rebuilding my civic.
Stumbled across your channel, Ford Sierra took me back. That workshop looks like it is a tad fresh in the winter!
hi hows its going see if you put tape around the threads of the shocks when you set the hight it helps then if you want to low it down the nuts and threads are clean good job keep it up
nice! keep us updated on the durability of these please
Great video, nice to see an honest opinion and not scared to point out negatives👍👏
Bought them back in october 2018 for my 200sx
I've done about 10 000 kilometers with them, the fronts are still in good shape but the rears are gone, leaking, bouncing..
Hope these ones will hold together haha
Keep up the good work !
Only 10k Km with the shocks? Thats extremely crap quality!
@@Mirage8v for 135€ this is way beyond my expectations, they're really good for the price, when you buy them you just have to lower your expectations and know that they're not 1.2k coilovers
They introduced me to drifting, so I'm really happy with them
@@Mirage8v there well known for being shit
I ran them on a mk1 and i agree they are extremely stiff. if you want the stiffest ride possible this is you answer. but they didnt ever blow.
i think cheap coilovers are pretty good if you just want to drive low (not for racing).
i drove about 50 000 km on one set on my scirocco. its a bit harsh on body structure because we have bad roads.
but over all i bought third set already. its a bit jumpy but i actually like stiffer ride. get better control especially on snow.
I'm always impressed young lady you must of paid an interest from a early age because you've skills beyond your age.
cheers to Maxpeedingrods for nod Good stuff here
Awesome video as usual 🤙 much love from your no.1 fan from Cape Town ❤️
A little cold in the Cape at the moment.
Nice job keep working on the vw mk2 golf i like vw mk3 and mk4 and mk2 golf.
nicely filmed,simple instruction, and the weight scale video should be very interesting. thank you.
Well done beth, greetings from austria 👌👍🇦🇹
Great Video and a good honest review. We'll done
Muy buen video!!! Me a venido de perlas, es lo que estaba buscando.Muchas gracias por compartir tus trabajos, un saludo y sigue asi👍💪💪💪💪
Bin them! I'm not gonna big them up, I've only heard bad reviews. Fair play they were free but in less than a year, they will be in the bin.
Great video on the golf any more videos on the golf 😉
Great review Beth maybe get some for my new UTE :) stay safe.
Fair play to ya Beth. Good review on the coilovers. The fellas and i just got back again. Your looking good how's your pop doing?
Another excellent video, Beth, thank you.
Great job well done.
I love it, usher thank you
Great video as always :)
hola la verdad increible video lo disfrute espero el siguiente video me voy les mando cariños muchas gracias
Great Video, and Nice Mk2!! What engine is it? I own a few, a couple with 20V turbo's in, and one with a 2E from a Mk3 in it, they are great little cars. And I must say, you've got more about you than my son, I'd struggle to get him to do what you did, fair play to you, keep up the good work. New sub (thumbs up)
Красивые койловеры👍👍👍
Nice car and nice wheels
Good work but should never tighten suspension component until all the cars weight is back on the suspension
You should put on some vented disks on there worth it !! i really dont understand why vw made the front shock mount nuts like that annoying
Is that the same maxspeedingrod turbos baddaddy brad of hoonigan fame raves about? Good to see you looking after your knees, pay attention young ‘uns!! 👍
Smart Mk2 Golf, I had one years ago and should have kept it. Looks like a good piece of kit and fairly straightforward to fit. You weren’t tempted to lower the suspension then?
well done.
Awesome video , keep at it 🙂👌
Good content, can’t wait to see more!
Awesome!
great and wonderful video, solid work, golf 2 rulez 👍👍😍
Some of the roads round where I live are crap this includes main roads which knock the crap out of any suspension.
Great video. Keep up the good work 👍
your awesome 😊, long live golf and long live you I adore you t'
Hey boys did anyone notice she is working on her car outside on the ground!!!
Good job, you’re dedicated 😊
Hi. Is there any damper adjustment to stop the suspension from being so bumpy?
Also, as you wind up the spring, surely you're increasing the preload and making the springs shorter and stiffer, or am I missing something here?
Great video. Remove and replace. Awesome
Could you show the car on the scales and how to setup them up properly please
Hey how did you install the front ones? Did you have to modify it? Looking at same kit for mine, same car too and it says does not come with top mount please help!
Stupid special VW nut.... Ha ha nice one Beth, great job 👍
good girl, good coilovers, great gift for a car.
Kerching!
I think the coilover company might watch this and think "Ouch, she burned us".
does no one in the UK use imperial measures
Beth, great work 👻
Hello seriously considering these for my VW T5 are yours still going strong
Nice video
Hi, have you done the tracking, as you changed the coilovers?
Cant belive you can get coilovers for all four corners for just £164
Just one Bilstein shock absorber for my old SAAB 96 V4 costs over £200 !!!
They are crap that's why. 🙄
👍👌Nice job
I wish my mechanic looked as good as u x
Greetings from the international space station!
Hello from Russia!
perfect job! like!
Saludos amiga desde México 👍
Quick tip. Upgrade to mk3 Vr6 upper strut mounts. The mk2 upper mounts are garbage.
เก่งด้วยแล้วก็สวยมากๆ
Love that Golf. Needs an extra two cylinders.
Can you help me about my mk2
Muito bom parabens
cool accent!
Hi. Great video. I'm looking into lifting my Golf. How much higher can you get than stock springs on those new coilovers?
This type of coilovers aren't meant to lift a car hight u will end up with a very stiff ride how stiff ? Cracking dash stiff !
no volvo coilovers :(
Aliexpress stuff !!
The suspension is killing me..!
Me gusta tu auto :D
Cuidado con esa suspensión q se sale de los tornillos!!!
It's so good to see a girl working on a car like you do!! So Sexy! I too got a MKII GTD. Congratulations, Keep up the good work!
Buen video
Thats a lot for your money !
bruh they are 120 for a set
Végén megnéztem volna,hogy hogy néz ki az ültetés.
When Beth starts wrenchin, get out of the way cause shit is gettin real.
I really love your eyes😍😍😍😍
