Hi
I've got a pair of new unused 40mm lowering springs for my 306td but didn't fit them. Would they fit your 306? Probably want £25 for then

1.8 springs might fit... But for the exact reason you took them off your gti, they won't be "right"
RE: lowering springs wanted - Midnightclub - 18-09-2012
They'd be more like 50-60mm with the extra weight of the HDi lump over the 1.8 too
RE: lowering springs wanted - puglove - 18-09-2012
50-60mm? They will be spit on then
RE: lowering springs wanted - Midnightclub - 18-09-2012
50 - 60 yes... the right spring rate.. noooo lol

according to spax when i ordered them, them particular springs are for all the dervs, TUs and the 1.8 so should be fine@!
RE: lowering springs wanted - Connor - 18-09-2012
Well that's total bollocks, they'll be right for 1 of the engines, but not all of them. Just think a HDi and a tu5 on a set of scales... Lol

yeah i know weights are different but think how much money they wouldnt make if they made a different spring for every model? probably grouped like that and the rates are based on a average or something like that
