  • 2011 GTI- old nut doesn’t fit. Didn’t come with a new proper nut
I’m really upset. Why would you ship something without the proper fitting parts for it! Update: I ordered two. The other one included the the proper nut. So maybe they forgot the nut in one box or maybe I somehow misplaced it. It was wrapped separately in a little plastic bag. Genius. Update: I found the missing nut. I’m sorry. You know how frustrating it gets fixing an old car lol. ... show more

  • Good overall
Works great but was missing a nut for the install. One of the two I purchased did not come with the new nut.

  • Great OEM replacement
I replaced the rear shocks on my 13 VW Jetta sportwagon and these were a perfect fit and easy repair. It’s a great affordable oem replacement

  • A good replacement for OEM shocks
I did fit these myself..I had never replaced shocks on a vehicle myself before..I did struggle with the replacement a bit..do your self a favor and buy a shock top socket before you get started.

  • Great product
As a mechanic these were a simple install on my 2013 VW Golf. One of them had the retainer band come lose, thankfully the shipping box was over sized, so the rod didn’t poke out and receive any damage. Make sure after you release the straps you prime them, (press rod into chamber until it stops, let rod push out on its own, 3-5 times, more if the rod was already extended upon receipt) the one that came loose took awhile to prime but my ride quality has increased. I’ll do the front struts eventually. You may need to do an alignment afterwards as well. ... show more

Immediate difference once replaced. A little stiffer in the back going over speed bumps but the rattling is interior and not the old worn shocks anymore.
