VW TOURAN (1T3. 1t) 05/2010-05/2015 (1.2 TSI / 105 HK) Karosstyp: Kombi / Drivning: 2WDST XA coilovers feature KW damping technology which allows the suspension to be made either stiffer or softer depending on the driving conditions. This damping adjustment is made on the upper end of the chromed piston rod allowing the setup to be changed almost instantly. If the rebound force is increased, the car will drive with even more track stability and further reduced bodyroll. If the rebound force is decreased, the car will feel more comfortable when on the move. Any vehicle fitted with ST XA coilovers will act much more agile and sporty compared to standard.Like all ST coilovers the lowering adjustment is made via a continuous thread on the galvanized strut. This even allows the lowering to be made even when the kit is installed by turning the spring plate higher or lower! NOTE: The lowering of each vehicle differs greatly with ST XA coilovers due to the type of construction. For example, older vehicles such as the Honda Civic (EJ9) can be lowered between 40-75mm with ST XA coilovers, while newer models such as the Audi S3 (8P) can be lowered between 10-40mm due to being much lower from the factory.
The high-quality ST XA coilover is based on the twin-tube damping principle of low friction combined with pressure-resistant damper housings. Manufactured directly at KW, a mono block guide and seal package reduces the friction of the damper as well as protecting it against corrosion and dirt. Each galvanized strut is sealed multiple times to ensure maximum longevity in ALL weather conditions.

ST Suspensions was founded in the early 80s in Southern California. Back then, the brand was called Suspension Techniques and developed many new and innovative products that the market lacked. By using quality materials, modern techniques and fast production, they created a really good value for the customer. At this time, they focused mainly on the Sportcompact market and the brand quickly grew strongly throughout the USA.
In 2005, German KW Suspensions bought Suspension Techniques and their then owner Belltech. KW, known worldwide for their stainless coilover kits, then started KW Automotive North America Inc, which became their American division. At the same time, they changed the name of Suspension Techniques to ST Suspensions.
At the same time as merging these, they brought in the technology from KW's dampers and took ST to a whole new level. Here they started manufacturing ST's new coilover program which is based on KW's Inox series, but in order to maintain an aggressive price image, a galvanized and coated damper body is used instead of a stainless one. This is to get a slightly lower production cost than the market leading KW damper.KW and ST together are one of the most well-respected coilover manufacturers, which is based on the enormous time spent on R&D for each kit. Here, the springs and shims of the coilovers are tested in a 7-point rig. Something that can almost be described as a dyno bench for shock absorbers. The coilovers are therefore very well tuned for each application, which is most clearly seen in all satisfied customers worldwide!
ST Suspensions has several different series to suit the type of driving the product is to be used for! Everything from the slightly simpler ST X to the track coilover XTA Plus 3!
