Anyone heard of SACHS Advantage brand shock absorber?

[Echelon]

Hi anyone heard of SACHS Advantage shocks? Someone recommended to me as a more economical alternative for a stiffer ride.

 

TIA.

I do not know about SACHS Advantage shocks.

 

However, someone recommended to me Koni yellow shock absorbers (non-adjustable type) as a replacement for OEM shocks to give the Skoda Superb a more stable ride with improved handling, and claimed that it will remove the floaty feeling, especially for back-seat passengers.

 

Please share if you have changed the OEM shocks about the brands and the experience.

 

Thanks,

it should be : Koni Yellow are the adjustable type, Koni Red will be the OE replacement (non adjustable)

[Vtim]

however, there is a new Koni light yellow known as FSD (Frequency Selective Damping), this one no need adjustment, it's like your car having "Active Ride Control", as stated by Koni.

no adjustments means same like the red one lah.......

Bro , the suspension SACHS Advantage is a suspension that puts an emphasis on individual requirements .

 

 

Sachs Advantage a head start through technology

In the Advantage series, you will only find single and twin tube gas pressure shock absorbers. Special techniques are employed wherever they can lead to a noticeable improvement to driving performance.

An example of this is groove technology, which helps to adapt the absorption power to the certain vehicles. Or state-of-the-art valve technology which permits a special coordination of digressive characteristics. Advanced technology precisely and individually tailor made to suit each vehicle type, axle construction and suspension design. In this way, Advantage convinces above all by its high safety reserves and optimum road-holding
