Will it fit my VW Golf?
Front and rear differ; some sport/R-Line setups use specific dampers. Replace in axle pairs.
Tip: filter by your reg on eBay's compatibility check, or match the part number stamped on your old unit.
Signs your VW Golf shock absorber needs replacing
- Bouncy or floaty ride
- Knocking over bumps
- Uneven tyre wear
- Nose-dive under braking
Fitting it yourself
Spring compressor needed on fronts (strut type) — rears usually simpler.
Torque: Top mount and lower bolt torques are model-specific; use new nuts where one-time-use.
