VVK Coilover Conversions: The Ultimate Suspension Upgrade for Your Mercedes
Mercedes-Benz vehicles are known for their blend of luxury and performance, but their factory Active Body Control (ABC) suspension system is often a major headache. Expensive repairs, frequent failures, and complicated hydraulic systems make maintaining these cars a challenge. That’s where VVK comes in. Our coilover conversion kits provide a permanent, high-performance solution, eliminating the problematic ABC system while enhancing handling and control.
VVK coilover conversions are available for a range of Mercedes chassis, including:
Whether you own an SL, E-Class, CL, or S-Class, VVK has engineered a solution tailored to your vehicle’s needs, offering a seamless transition to a reliable, performance-driven suspension setup.
Why Upgrade to VVK Coilovers?
The factory ABC system is complex and costly to maintain. Many owners have faced continuous leaks, pump failures, and expensive repairs that can quickly add up. Switching to a VVK coilover kit eliminates these concerns while delivering benefits such as:
-
Improved Handling & Control – Our coilovers provide superior ride quality with adjustable damping and spring rates to fine-tune your driving experience.
-
Reliability & Longevity – Say goodbye to leaking hydraulic lines and failing pumps. Our coilovers are built to last.
-
Custom Sway Bars Included – Unlike other conversion kits on the market, VVK includes custom front and rear sway bars designed specifically for each chassis, ensuring your car handles at its best.
-
Height & Damping Adjustability – Easily adjust ride height and damping settings to match your driving style, whether you prefer a comfortable ride or aggressive track performance.
The Complete VVK Coilover Kit
Each VVK coilover conversion kit is designed for a direct replacement of the ABC system and includes:
-
Full Coilover Suspension – Featuring 25-click simultaneous compression and rebound adjustment for fine-tuned handling.
-
Custom Front & Rear Sway Bars – Ensuring your Mercedes handles as confidently as the AMG Black Series models.
-
Replacement Power Steering Pump – Eliminates the ABC dual-pump system, simplifying the vehicle’s hydraulic setup.

All Necessary Installation Hardware – Everything needed for a smooth and hassle-free installation.
-
1-Year Limited Warranty – Covering manufacturing defects for peace of mind.
Street vs. Race: Choose Your Setup
VVK offers two distinct coilover setups to match your driving style:
-
Street Version: Designed for daily drivers and grand touring enthusiasts. This version offers a comfortable yet responsive ride, with adjustable damping to soften the suspension for cruising or firm it up for spirited driving.
-
Race Version: Engineered for high-performance applications, aggressive cornering, and track use. The race version features stiffer spring rates and more aggressive damping to handle high speeds, widebody setups, and high-horsepower builds.
Why Custom Sway Bars Matter
Unlike other coilover conversion kits, VVK goes the extra mile by including custom sway bars for each chassis. Since ABC-equipped Mercedes models do not come with traditional sway bars, simply adding coilovers is not enough for proper handling. VVK’s sway bars ensure optimal stability, significantly reducing body roll and improving cornering performance.
Engine Mount Upgrade Recommendation
For best results, VVK recommends replacing worn engine mounts when installing the coilover kit. Collapsed mounts can cause clearance issues with sway bars and affect handling. We suggest upgrading to Mercedes Black Series engine mounts (part number 2402400817) for better durability and performance.
