In motor vehicle power-supply circuits, the individual consuming devices cause electrical disturbance variables. Volkswagen AG checks whether electronic components (which are installed by the manufacturer) are electromagnetically compatible inside the vehicle.

If electrical or electronic systems are to be upgraded or retrofitted, it is also required to check their electromagnetic compatibility.

Setting values: Dimension a:

up to 1,100 kg front-axle load = 280 mm
1,100 kg to 1,200 kg = 273 mm
more than 1,200 kg = 265 mm

Dimension ‘a’ is to be measured between the screw head of the damper reception (above) and the screw centre of the screw damper (below). If required, the prescribed standing height can be adjusted by turning the nut at the tension lever of the torque rod. (Arrow)
