XYZ Racing Pro Rally Coilovers — Skoda OCTAVIA 5E WAGON φ55 (Rear Multi-Link Suspension) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2013-2019

The Octavia 5E Wagon left the factory with adaptive electronic damping, and that’s the first problem for anyone building it for gravel or snow stages – a fixed-rate rally coilover and an active damper control unit don’t coexist. This kit pairs the XYZ Racing Pro Rally coilover with the cancellation hardware needed to remove the electronic damping loop cleanly, so the car runs on a purely mechanical, rally-spec suspension front to rear.

Pro Rally is built for top-flight rally competition, not a fast-road compromise dressed up in rally language. On the Octavia’s longer wagon wheelbase, that means a set-up designed to cope with compression events a hatchback never sees – jumps, ruts, and the load the rear axle carries on a wagon body over rough surfaces.

What this coilover does for your 2013-2019 Skoda Octavia

With the φ55 shock body and the multi-link rear axle retained, this set-up gives the Octavia the wheel travel and damping control a rally car needs without the electronic control unit second-guessing every input. Removing the adaptive damping means the suspension behaves the same way on the fiftieth compression as the first – no ECU intervention trying to soften or firm the ride mid-stage. The wagon’s extra weight over the rear axle is accounted for in how the kit is specified, keeping the rear planted under load rather than pattering over broken surfaces. Ride height and corner balance are adjustable to match the car’s actual weight distribution once ballast, spare wheel, and co-driver equipment are fitted, which matters more on a wagon than a three-door hatch.

About the Pro Rally coilover

Rally suspension for gravel and snow work splits into two distinct approaches, and it’s worth knowing which one you’re building. An amateur-type set-up installs directly onto the original chassis mounting points with no structural changes required. A professional-type set-up is fitted after the body has been modified – reinforced mounts, altered geometry points, or a full cage-integrated strut top – and is built for a car that’s already committed to competition use rather than road-and-stage duality. The Pro Rally coilover is engineered to work across both installation routes, with damping and spring specification aimed at repeated high-load stage running rather than a single sprint event.

Fitment for the Skoda Octavia 5E Wagon (2013-2019)

This kit fits the Skoda Octavia 5E Wagon, chassis code SK15-C, across the 2013-2019 production run, specifically the version with rear multi-link suspension. The cancellation kit is required on cars fitted with electronic damping control from the factory – check your car’s original spec before ordering if you’re unsure which rear suspension type you have.
