I see there are two versions of the KW Coilovers when looking on ebay.de. Does anybody know if the 2.0 has the same axle load as the 1.8?

KW Gewindefahrwerk AUDI A5 B8 5/07- VA 1080 Variante 1 (for the 1.8)

ab Baujahr 5/07- , 125kW
max. zul. Achslast VA -1080 kg
HA -1090 kg

I think this one is for all others, but it is specced for the 1.8 it seems to if you look at engine KiloW (1.8tfsi is 125kw)

ab Baujahr 5/07- , 120-195kW
max. zul. Achslast VA -1150 kg
HA -1090 kg

Here is KW pages... doesn't specify anything.

Any idea on which to get?

Does nobody know what the max front axle load for the 2.0 tfsi is? If somebody with this car can check their car registration documents where it should be specified, I would much appreciate it.

I contacted KW and the Norwegian dealer for KW but they told me to check my car docs (which I don't have LOL)...

I can find axle load in my Technical license for my car, sorry I don't know right name of it.

I see you don't have car yet...

I think for 1.8TSI and 2.0TFSI it is the same, more axle load is for V6 and TDI usually.

Yeah that is what I figured and KW support said it was probably the same as 1.8tfsi even though the 2.0 is 25kg heavier than the 1.8... that shouldn't make any diff
