Audi RS5 B10 Height Adjustable Springs That Retain Factory Dampers (Coilovers Coming Soon)
Your RS5 Avant B10 has the wide bodywork. You choose how it sits on its wheels. KW height adjustable springs let you lower your 470 kW plug-in hybrid while retaining its adaptive factory dampers. Coming soon, KW V3 coilovers will add another option for owners who also want to adjust rebound and compression damping separately. Choose the approach that suits your plans for the Avant, from refining its proportions to taking a more active role in suspension setup. Explore the differences and decide which adjustments matter to you.

The Suspension Comparison
The Standard Suspension
The Audi RS5 Avant B10 combines five-link axles with the adaptive RS sport suspension. Its two-valve dampers control compression and rebound independently, supporting a broad balance between body control and ride comfort. This gives the Avant a capable factory basis for everyday journeys and spirited drives. For an owner looking to personalise its appearance, ride height offers a way to refine the relationship between the wheels and the wide bodywork.
KW height adjustable springs for your Audi RS5 Avant B10
Want to minimize the gap between the RS5 body and the wheels? Our KW coilovers complement the stock dampers with stepless height adjustment. Thanks to the height-adjustable threaded ring, you can choose a drop of 15 to 30 mm in the front and 20 to 35 mm in the rear. The electronic damper control remains active. With coilovers, you can adjust the ride height of your Avant to match your desired look. The package includes matching elastomers and the dust protection system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can lowering springs be adjusted?
Conventional springs with a fixed drop do not provide ride height adjustment. KW height adjustable springs are different: threaded sleeves and spring plates let you vary the lowering within the specified ranges. On your Audi RS5 Avant B10, that gives you a choice of height rather than one fixed drop. Have the adjustment carried out correctly and follow the application documents for your vehicle and spring kit.
How low can I lower my Audi RS5 Avant B10 with KW coilovers?
For the RS5 TFSI Plug-in Hybrid quattro with 470 kW, you can choose a lowering range of 15 to 30 mm on the front axle and 20 to 35 mm on the rear axle. These values apply to each axle. Within these ranges, the height can be adjusted continuously. Choose the setting that best suits your desired look and everyday driving conditions. The lowering range for the KW V3 coilover suspension may vary.
How do KW height adjustable springs differ from coilovers?
The KW spring kit retains the factory dampers in your RS5 Avant B10 and combines them with springs and individual height adjustment. A complete coilover kit also replaces the dampers; its damping adjustment options depend on the product. For your RS5, we offer KW height-adjustable springs and will soon be offering the KW V3 as well. They meet your desire to adjust the ride height while keeping the standard adaptive dampers.
Can I continue to use my adaptive RS sport suspension with the V3?
If you choose the KW V3, it will replace your standard RS sport suspension. Since this is an adaptive suspension, you’ll need to deactivate it using our KW cancellation kit when installing the V3 to prevent error messages from appearing in the cockpit. The cancellation can be reversed at any time, allowing you to reactivate your RS sport suspension whenever you want.
