VB-FSD Technology front struts (with VB-CoilSpring) are a replacement for the original vehicle front strut and spring, and offers a adaptive damping force and more suitable strength and spring force.
FSD stands for ‘Frequency Selective Damping’. The addition of a special valve allows the shock absorber with FSD technology to vary its own damping force. This directly results in more comfortable driving characteristics, improved stability, greater safety and less vibration and background noise, since unevenness in the road surface is not felt as distinctly in the motorhome or campervan.
With standard shock absorbers you have to make a choice between stability and comfort. If you go for more stability, the vehicle will feel more stable, but will not provide as much comfort. If you go for comfort, the vehicle will be comfortable to drive, but will not feel as stable. Clearly, it's best to have both and the varying damping force of VB-FSD delivers on this.
Problems which can be addressed with VB-FSD Technology
- Suspension drift
- Uncomfortable driving characteristics
- Vehicle instability
- Sagging of the vehicle body
- Unevenness in the road surface distinctly felt in the vehicle
- Vibration in the chassis
- Background noise (bumps) in the chassis
- Background noise (creaking) in the vehicle body
