KW ESC Module for 8P Audi S3
KW’s ESC Module for 8P Audi S3 lets compression and rebound be tuned independently to the car in front of you. It is a coilover kit with separately adjustable compression and rebound damping, developed and manufactured by KW in Fichtenberg, Germany and validated on the company’s own 7-post shaker rig before production. Pitch and roll under braking, cornering and load change are reduced, body control improves, and the 8P Audi S3 responds the way its specification always suggested it could.
Design and Performance
- The ESC Module for 8P is a coilover kit with separately adjustable compression and rebound damping. Damping is valved by KW for this specific application rather than adapted from a generic part, and ride height is set on the strut body so corner weights can be dialled in properly. KW validates every application on its own 7-post shaker rig and supplies the kit ready to install on the listed vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the KW ESC Module for 8P made from? KW builds the kit around a high-quality stainless steel damper housing with a composite spring seat and a trapezoidal thread body for continuous height adjustment. It is manufactured at KW’s headquarters in Fichtenberg, Germany, and every application is validated on the company’s own 7-post shaker rig before it enters production.
- Which Audi models does this kit fit? This part number covers the Audi S3 built between 2008 and 2012, across 1 listed engine and body variant shown under Applications. Confirm the exact model, drivetrain and suspension options against that list before ordering, because KW builds separate part numbers for closely related versions of the same car.
- How far does the ESC Module for 8P lower the car? Ride height is continuously adjustable on the trapezoidal thread rather than fixed at a single drop. That allows the car to be corner balanced to a target and the setting revised later without changing springs, which is the practical difference between a coilover and a lowering spring.
- Is this kit suitable for daily driving? Yes. KW valves this kit for road use first and validates it on the 7-post rig against real road inputs, so body control improves without the harshness a track damper brings. Ride height can also be set conservatively to preserve ground clearance for everyday driving.
- Does the ESC Module for 8P need any modification to fit? No. The kit is built as a direct replacement for the factory suspension on the listed applications and installs with normal workshop tools. Read the Notes for this part number first, since some applications require the factory electronic damping to be deactivated or wheel spacers to be run.
- Is this kit covered by a warranty? Yes. KW covers its street coilover kits under a Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects in workmanship and material when bought from an authorised dealer. The warranty covers the original purchaser and excludes racing, commercial and off-road use, and it does not cover removal, installation or shipping costs.
