  1. Identification of the running gear version (spring constant/spring length) by two different colored lines (for example, 1 x gold and 1 x red).
  2. Identification of the coil spring tolerance group (load group) for determination of the compensation part (spring plate) thickness. Coil spring with:

    1 green line = 4.0 mm thick compensation part (black)

    1 white line = 0.5 mm thick compensation part (natural color)

  3. Color dot (color label) to differentiate the vibration damper. For the Turbo, there is a variant for the USA and a variant for the RoW. Vibration damper with:

    Golden color dot = RoW running gear

    Red color dot = USA running gear

  1. Tension coil spring with spring clamp.
