    Looks so much better, VW should of set it this height at factory, it sits like the Audi now. Ride has not changed at all, DCC still works perfectly.
    If you are wondering like me if you should do it yourself, please don’t, go for it!
    Can you post some pics of how it sits now?, also have you had some hard scrub outs on the front bumper? some driveways ive been up scrub so im a little hesitant to lower further.

    Thank you for a great post and the feedback!

    Please can you let me know if you have carried out the DCC calibration using OBDeleven? On some forums people are saying this makes a real difference?

    I have just ordered H&R Lowering Springs and also VAGSport 12mm front spacers and 15mm rear spacers.

    Would appreciate your advice.

    i've recently done (last week) the DCC re-calibration on my Superb and its made a nice difference.
    my Superb is lowered 25mm on Eibach ProKit springs.
    i've had the car lowered for more than a year now. wish i'd done this much much earlier.

    The car is less crashy. Previously with the lowered springs, the DCC shocks were not ideally matched, and hence it would crash/bottom-out on speed humps or dips, especially in Normal or Comfort modes.

    After re-calibrating, the DCC shocks r better behaved with the shorter springs.

    I don't have to put the car in Sport setting for Suspension, anymore.

    Really happy with it. i highly recommend to perform the DCC re-calibration.

    I've gone ahead and ordered a set of Eibach Pro Kit Springs: E10-85-044-03-22

    Looking into replacing/upgrading/lubricating some other minor parts during installation. Probably things like strut mounts + bearings. Any recommendations?

    I have H&R springs in mine, everything works as it should looks great although I would have liked it a little lower. If you have 3k to 4k get yourself a set of coil overs.
