how is it to get service for Ohlin's coilover?

hello, if i get brand new ohlin coilover, how is it to get service in futre if these coilovers go bad???

seems like KW variant has really good custom service and it's easy to get service if somethings goes wrong...

any input would be helpful. thanks.

Ohlins is in North Carolina. Very easy to deal with. Pretty quick turn around time and they can revalve/rebuild to your specs. Or just tell them the spring rates you're running and they can valve your coilovers accordingly.

We work with them all the time. Good people.

There are several places that revalve Ohlins and have quick turn around times, Ohlins USA as GTWorx mentioned is one of them. Performance shop in CA supposedly has quick turn around times. Works also revalves Ohlins .... For a full list check this:

Both are awesome, but I think in your case Ohlins are the easier solution. Less headache, everything comes as a complete package. Valving is a little better with the Ohlins, just a bit. Service with both is great really.

Sending you a PM now.
