XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — Skoda KODIAQ 4WD φ55 (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2016-2026

The Kodiaq’s 4WD layout puts real weight over the rear axle the moment you load three rows or a full boot, and the factory electronic dampers were tuned around that variability rather than around how the car actually sits day to day. Swapping to a fixed-rate mechanical set-up with the cancellation harness built in means the ride is no longer being second-guessed by a control module – it’s set by you, once, for how the car is actually loaded and driven.

The Super Sport kit is XYZ Racing’s fast-road and weekend-track spec for the SK25-C chassis, and the φ55 body diameter is chosen specifically for the extra unsprung mass this platform carries. It replaces the OEM adaptive damping electronics outright rather than working around them, so there’s no fault code hunting or dash warning once it’s fitted.

What this coilover does for your 2016-2026 Skoda Kodiaq

With 36-way damping adjustment, you can run the front end firmer to control the nose-dive this SUV shows under hard braking, while keeping the rear compliant enough for a loaded boot on a motorway run. Ride height is independently adjustable at each corner, which matters on a tall 4WD platform like the Kodiaq where getting the centre of gravity down measurably reduces body roll through a roundabout or a fast A-road bend. Because the cancellation kit removes the electronic damper controller from the loop, damping force stays exactly where you set it rather than drifting with drive-mode selection – useful on a car that otherwise switches character every time someone taps Sport mode. Owners running this kit on the Kodiaq typically dial the front stiffer than the rear to manage the 4WD system’s tendency to push wide on turn-in, then soften off for the school run.

About the Super Sport coilover

XYZ Racing built the Super Sport range to take away the harshness that comes with a hard-sprung set-up on real UK roads – it’s a monotube design with 36 damping positions rather than a handful of clicks, so the gap between "comfortable" and "controlled" is finer than most direct-fit coilovers offer. Ride height adjustment is independent of spring preload, letting you drop the car without stacking preload onto the spring and changing its effective rate. XYZ pitches this range for drivers who want one car doing weekend track sessions and the daily commute without swapping components between the two, and the spec reflects that: adjustable enough to firm up for a circuit but not so aggressive that motorway expansion joints become punishing. For the Kodiaq’s cancellation-kit application, the electronic damper hardware is deleted from the circuit entirely, so the ECU no longer expects a signal it isn’t getting.

Fitment for the Skoda Kodiaq (2016-2026)

Built for the Kodiaq 4WD, chassis code SK25-C, covering model years 2016 to 2026. This is the cancellation-kit variant specifically for cars that left the factory with electronic damping control – it replaces that system’s dampers and disables the associated wiring loop rather than fitting alongside it.
