KW Coilover Kit Variant 4 (V4) 3-Way Adjustable – BMW M5 (G90) / M5 Touring (G99)

OVERVIEW

The KW Variant 4 is KW's three-way adjustable coilover for fast road and track use. Low-speed compression, high-speed compression and rebound are set on separate adjusters, so body control over curbs and big compressions can be dialed in without also making the car harsh over small inputs. That separation is the whole point of a 3-way damper and it is what the Variant 3 cannot do.

On the current-generation M5 the factory adaptive damper strategy will not let you separate spring rate from damping, and the electronic dampers are tied into the car's driving-mode software. The V4 replaces the strut assembly outright with an adjustable-height, adjustable-damping unit.

This listing covers the current-generation G90 M5 sedan and G99 M5 Touring, both built on BMW's S68 twin-turbo hybrid V8. 3A7200GG (G90 sedan) and 3A7200GL (G99 Touring) are Bundle kits, supplied with the KW ESC/EDC cancellation module.

TECH RESOURCES

Additional Parts Required

• Both 3A7200GG and 3A7200GL are Bundle kits and already include the ESC/EDC cancellation module; no separate module purchase is needed.
• A corner-balance and a full four-wheel alignment are required after installation. Given the hybrid drivetrain's added weight and battery placement, confirm ride-height targets with us before setting the car up.

Installation

• Installation instructions (3A7200GG / 3A7200GL): PDF.
• Setup manual (3A7200GG): PDF.
• Setup manual (3A7200GL): PDF.
• In brief: the job is a full strut-out replacement front and rear, with the ESC modules plugged into the OE damper connectors, ride height set to KW's published range, and the car corner-balanced and aligned.

Notes

• 3A7200GG (M5 G90) and 3A7200GL (M5 Touring G99) use the S68 turbocharged hybrid V8. The G90 sedan application is inferred from the paired G99 Touring part number — confirm the chassis with KW North America before ordering.
