Porsche Porsche Cayenne S 2008 - BC Coilover / Swift Springs
#31
I feel the rebound in the front was not 'perfectly' valved and I was getting more movement than I desired....I like it firm!
The Tech's at BC have sent me some new front coil overs that have been re-valved, AWESOME back up, service and care!. Feel VERY confident in dealing with them
I will post some new pic's of the shock & Install

Sold the CS...Here are a custom set of front BC Coilover (re-valved firmer) shock inserts for Porsche, Audi, VW, any SUV / Truck / Racer

These will regain some more travel/rebound without lock up around 8-10
I must commend BC Tech Dept for helping me dial in the valving on the CS, they were very helpful and went out of their way
If you drive hard, turn hard, brake hard these are the ticket

I would not go more than 1 (2 max) clicks front in rear softer than what I did...I had swift springs that soak up bumps better. IMO go 9f 10r. The reason for the harder rear is the rear end of a big pig gets bouncy. I will say at my lower settings the bc shocks got soft, perhaps I was blowing out the seals. BC did me right on revalve. If you wan't it stiffer then you need re-valve. In the end I sold it...It was a joke getting out of the M3 and expecting anything sporty from the size and weight. Have no Kids, live in Fla so it was a nothing mobile to me. Actually I think a new ford 150 truck 3.5 turbo is a better option...just dial the boost up, but zippy stock

So now I'm a little confused. Don't you start at 0? Which is fully turning to the right (hard) and then start turning to the left (soft) to count your settings?
I set mine now to 10F & 12R I turned all the way to the right (Hard) and then counted 10 clicks to the left (soft) for the front and 12 for the rear.

I 'think' that's it...turned it down then backed off the clicks to 10-12 or your desired number, I remember it was like 20+ clicks from soft, it was too many to count. I do remember from the bottom felt like a 1/2 click, I did not count that, just the first solid click spot at the bottom

I got the coilovers installed today but not happy with BC at all. Someone put the wrong stickers on the front struts. They were installed by looking at the stickers BC installed that states FR & FL but after both were installed and everything put back together we noticed the CV boots were hitting the struts. Everything needed to be pulled apart and switched around. I'm thinking to have BC pay the labor it cost me to have it done.
Here is what it looked like before switching them around.
