COILOVERS DS / BC RACING / VOLVO V70

BC Racing DS coilovers for Volvo V70

This new BC Racing DS coilover kit is intended to improve the Volvo V70’s dynamic handling. Developed using BC Racing’s motorsport experience, the DS range is aimed at drivers seeking adjustable, high-performance suspension usable for sporty road driving and occasional track outings.

Purpose of the part

Coilovers replace the original suspension components to manage ride height, damping and vehicle support more precisely. They improve body control, particularly cornering roll, pitching under braking and weight transfer during acceleration.

BC Racing DS technology uses a digressive valve called Double Digressive Valving, increasing low-speed damping while retaining stable high-speed response. This design provides more precise steering, improved stability and sportier feedback than conventional suspension.

Symptoms or consequences of worn or unsuitable suspension

• Less precise road holding, particularly in corners or during changes in cornering load.
• Excessive body roll and a floaty body feel.
• Longer braking distances due to poor load transfer.
• Uneven tyre wear.
• Loss of comfort and unwanted noises linked to worn dampers.
• Lack of traction and stability during spirited driving.

Benefits of replacement

• Clear improvement in the Volvo V70’s road handling.
• Precise ride height adjustment without compromising suspension travel.
• Better control of body roll, pitch and weight transfer.
• More direct chassis response for sporty driving.
• Damping settings allow the comfort/performance balance to be tailored.
