VW Transporter T5 T6 KONI special active shock absorbers
KONI are undoubtably one of the finest suspension manufacturers in the industry. Their Special Active technology is the best shock absorber you can fit to your Transporter whether its standard height or lowered (up to 40 mm). KONI special active shocks are capable of adapting to the road surface by sensing the shaft frequency and adjusting to allow the car to ride over bumpy surfaces effortlessly. (the more uneven the surface the faster the shock shaft moves and it softens the valving to ensure a smooth transition over the bumps). The decision to fit performance suspension kits is often influenced by information on threads, forums and social media platforms , unfortunately the information is often misguided, incorrect and the writters own experiences which all differ. What is comfortable to one person might be very uncomfortable to another. And a sporty drive might be considered grossly uncomfortable by others. CRS have been involved in Suspension supplies , design and fitment for over 25 years and have worked closely with VW factories and dealerships in their quest to be the best. The feed back we recieve from countless Transporter owners is that many after market suspension systems are'nt comfortable and make the car quite harsh on the ride.

If you have these issues we have the answers. Give us a call for a more full explaination. Short note from recent customer Paul , a T5 2015 model 2.0 litre front wheel drive camper conversion! I appreciate my requirements sound counter intuitive but after talking to Steve Hurley from CRS Performance at Busfest 18 he was sure he could sort me out.

I decided to go for koni shocks with H&R-40 springs. Steve chose the appropriate spring rate based on the vans weight and fitted it for me a couple of weeks ago. I was right to put my faith in him, everything he said was true. The harsh reactions to pot holes, the buffeting from Lorries, the body roll on corners are all significantly reduced. Another benefit is the dramatic reduction in rattles from the camping kit and bed. The understeer has also improved noticeably. Altogether my wife and I are thrilled with conversion and the service from CRS. What Paul is experiencing is the special active valving (Patented to KONI) and its ability to read the road conditions and alter the forces generated by the shock absorber to suit. Its completely hydraulic and needs no electrical connections or sensors. Increased shaft frquencies result in softer damping forces. The balance between sporty agile performance and comfort is finally achievable. You can also see from the picture the car rides at a lovely height!
