Hi ,
I am replacing the guid support of my front suspension and the compleet spring assembly is now out.
Is there is a top or bottom side of the coil spring or what side should face the bearing.
Further the spring is marked GREEN is this correct?

Regards,

Nico

I don't think it matters which way up it goes unless it's a CSL with progressive springs, I don't know anything about the green marking.

Green is a stock CS spring, red is softest, white is next and green is most firm.

CSL Springs are red, yellow and blue which is the most firm. The CSL Springs have lower weight ratings I believe as these coupes weigh less.
