Hi,

I am interested to get the JCW suspension kit on my Cooper to enjoy the mountains roads. I read that there are 3 suspensions, to match with the mini exact weight; however the dealer does not seem to be aware of it, which is a bit scarying.

Should I choose to go ahead to get them to install it, how to make sure the right parts will be fitted ? The JCW catalog only mention one serial number, not 3.

Many thanks
Beud

There is only one part number for the JCW Suspension Kit ...
RealOEM - Part 33-50-0-429-708 Cross-reference (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partxref.do?part=33500429708&showus=on&showeur=on)
It's the springs that have to be matched to the vehicle's weight and the dealer is supposed to have "table" for determining the appropriate ones.
