Hello everybody.

Currently I have installed H&R 28840 in my gti mk7 performance 2013 with the DCC but I would want to change with the stock springs or similar from another brand.

The car comes with this H&R when I bought it so...

I have an offer for some springs coming from golf mk7 (non gti) and the reference is: 5Q0511121AB

I would need help if this will fit my car and work well.

Many thanks in advance,

Kind regards.

Hey Elliot,


Not sure what those new springs come from, but the H&R's you're currently running look to be from the sportwagen model.

It LOOKS like the new springs are factory VW for the 1.6 MK7 TDI.

What are you looking to accomplish with this swap and what are you looking for overall with your car's suspension?

Hello Uberpolka, thanks for answering. I'm looking to revert my springs to stock and enjoy my DCC. Seems that non gti springs are more high and thin than stock gti springs.

I would need references in order to buy gti mk7 oem springs or like oem from another brand.

Thanks in advance.

I can't say if the DCC car's use different springs, but any Mk7 ones should fit as far as I'm aware.


You should easily be able to find a set online here for cheap as other's have installed lowering springs.

You would just need to find someone willing to ship internationally.

Thanks uberpolka, would be nice to know the oem reference number.
Will ask if he wants to send internationally.
Thanks!
