Given my extremely rudimentary knowledge of suspension mechanics, I do not actually know what this means. What is the functional significance of this?
Thank you for sharing this info Ayao. Essentially it means they have softened the high and low speed compression damping in the rear. This makes sense and correlates to what i have been feeling in the car, I found the rear suspension to be too stiff and have been running the rebound settings much softer in the rear compared to the front.
