Fits: 2006-2006 Volkswagen Golf (GL, GLS, GLS TDI, GTI 1.8T).
This Type 4 coilovers kit from F2 Function & Form is for the Volkswagen Golf Mk5 (1K). The fit list on this listing covers the 2006 Golf in GL, GLS, GLS TDI and GTI 1.8T trims.
Type 4 is F2's wide-application range, with VW and Audi among the platforms it covers. Each kit is a set of height-adjustable coilovers built to order for your specific chassis, not pulled from a warehouse shelf. If you want to adjust the ride height on your Mk5, this kit is made around that chassis.
Check the fit list against your car and select your vehicle on the page to confirm fit. Built-to-order lead times apply, so see the chassis listing for details. You can also call 813-535-5801 and we will help you place the right F2 tier for your build.

Function and Form VW Golf Mk5 1K (06-09) Type 4 Coilovers Kit FAQ
It is listed for: 2006-2006 Volkswagen Golf. Pick your vehicle on this page to check your exact year and trim.
Ride height is set on the threaded body or the lower mount, and the damping (how firm the shock feels) with the adjuster when the kit has one. Some kits also let you set spring preload and camber at the top mount. The Part details above list what this exact kit adjusts.
Yes. Changing ride height changes camber and toe, so have the car aligned once the height is set and the suspension has settled after a short drive.
Set all four corners before the alignment, keep the drop inside the maker's range, and re-check the height after the first drive because the springs settle. Going lower than the maker recommends costs ride quality and tire life.
The car settles a little over the first few drives. After that, re-check the ride height, the lock rings on the collars and the top-mount hardware, then get the alignment done.
Yes. Most coilovers are built for daily use when set to the maker's recommended height and a softer damping setting. Track-focused series ride firmer.
Yes — monthly options show right under the Add to Cart button. Affirm, Klarna, PayPal Pay Later and Snap Finance are offered at checkout, and checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score.

Install and care: coilovers
Before you start
- Read the maker's guide and note the recommended ride-height range for your car.
- Book an alignment for after the install; the car needs one.
Do
- Set all four corners to the same drop before the alignment and re-check the height after the first drive.
- Keep the threads clean and lightly lubricated so the collars still turn next season.
Don't
- Don't go lower than the maker's range; it costs ride quality and tire life.
- Don't skip the alignment.
