I've done a search, but not managed to come to a conclusion...
Would mk5 gti (5-door) standard springs work on a Gt tdi??? Will the tdi sit higher or lower?
TIA

I fitted gti springs on my tdi and it does not sit that much lower really but the handling is much better now
Does not feel like a boat driving into bends
Maybe if I fitted 18" wheels it might fill the arches more ?
I'm still using the 17" gt alloys

Defo won't sit higher ......

Isn't the TDI unit heavier than the TFSi unit? Therefore it might sit slightly lower...
I may have dreamed that though... :ashamed:

Think that's the case with most diesel engines. Was with my Astra h... I put vxr springs on my cdti and it sat lower than a vxr :happy2:

Thanks for the replies guys... The buyer changed his mind.

The loading capacity of the gttdi is higher due to the wait and also will be the same height as a gti
You are better getting the right springs
