Caravelle T5.1 Suspension Upgrade - Bilstein B14 Komfort

[john.henderson@archerwell]

Hi, this is my first post. I’m looking to upgrade the suspension on my VW Caravelle T5.1 Long Wheel Base, 2013. The Bilstein B14 Komfort Adjustable Coilover Suspension kit appears to be the obvious choice, but then I read a couple of threads describing problems.

When we go on holiday our Caravelle is fully loaded (5 kids, 5 dogs, bike’s etc), and we do occasionally tow a 6 berth caravan. I’ve currently got 18” wheels but plan to upgrade to 20” wheels.

Am I likely to experience any problems with this Bilstein B14 Komfort Adjustable Coilover kit? Thanks for your help.

The B14 Komforts are a great kit - we are a dealer for them and one of our best sellers and as you say one of the best Coilover kits on the market. We also have our own Bilstein Coilover kit which actually rides a bit better than the Komforts.

There are been no issues with the Komforts, like the original B14’s and springs.

Enjoy the Caravelle John, had mine since 2011 and loved it. Just about to sell it as moving to a T6.1
