The torsion beam rear axle
In the TORSION BEAM REAR AXLE, the spring/
damper settings have been adapted to the
modified axle loads.
Modified offset depth
Rim offset depth was reduced to 37 mm from 45 mm,
with the result that the wheel is now flush with the body
exterior. Wheels fitted with winter tyres with ET45 offset
depth can still be used, except on the Passat 2001 with
large brake discs. This model has a wheel fitted with a
winter tyre in size 6Jx16 ET40.
