You are absolutely right!
I finally managed to find the part code on the front shocks with one of those ebay endoscope cameras. poor picture quality but I can see the code, it ends in CK,
(28) 4D0413031CK shock absorber / marked with: / ** caution! dangerous cargo ** / F 4D-1-000 001>> / also use: grey >>4D-Y-020000 8D0 412 066 F / PR-1BA,1BG, 1BM,1BN,1BT: AKN,AFB,AKE, AQG,AQH,AQF, ARU,BCS,AYS, AVP,AUW
So its the standard shock. Now I understand why MRC gave me the new springs coded:
(34) 4D0411105DD coil spring / 1 paint mark / 2 paint marks violet yellow / 8 cylinder: PR-1BA/0JJ; PR-1BE/0JJ; PR-1BN/0JJ; PR-1BM/0JJ; PR-1BT/0JH
My axle codes are 0JJ and 0YT, and suspension code 1BN
0YT = Weight range 18 installation control only, no requirement forecast
0JJ = Weight category front axle weight range 9
So now I have to decide, do I go to full sport suspension or put non-sport suspension on the rear too, since I have to get rid of the self leveling rear shocks.
The thing is, the standard suspension on the front feels really nice now, compared to the terrible (and broken) aftermarket springs the car came with.
Now I also have to check the front and rear sway bars, I'm betting they are non-sport too.
