Replacing Electronic Shock Absorbers
Is it possible to install standard shock absorbers in place of electronic shock absorbers for a VW Scirocco 2 ltr. GT TDi 2010 model?

I think it will physically fit but you will have the DCC light flashing as the plug wont be connected

Hello, no problem fitting normal shocks, you can uplug the switch so that it stops the flashing

Re: Replacing Electronic Shock Absorbers
As well as the LED flashing on the switch, depending upon the year of the car, you may also get an error message in the cluster. If your car displays a message on the cluster when you change the settings then it will more than likely store an error message under the "vehicle status" menu and have it popnup with a ping everytime you start the car.Fordy80 wrote:I need to replace mine.will I get any error lights etc on the dash replacing with normal shocks?
