KW V3 valving adjustment

I just picked up a set of V3s for a good price, unfortunately it didn't have any of the paperwork. What is the setting for the factory compression and rebound? I cant seem to find anywhere online where it talks about how many clicks from full hard/soft it's supposed to be from factory. Anyone know?

You can email or call KW for it. The recommended settings were printed and included with my documentation.

No worries. Sometimes things hidden in plain sight can be eye opening. :-)

KW V3 coilovers are one of my favorites because they offer independent rebound and compression controls - invaluable for more precise suspension tuning.

No different than when you tell the Wife you cant find something and she begrudgingly goes to look for it herself. *starts sweating profusely*

what setting do you have yours at?
