Advice
Shock absorbers always replace by axle. Therefore, replace both front shock absorbers simultaneously. This ensures the damping remains equal on the left and right, and the car maintains predictable handling and braking behavior.
During assembly, also check the mounting rubbers, bushings, and other parts of the front suspension for wear.
Always check before purchase and installation whether the part is suitable and equivalent based on photos, description, and specifications; installed or used parts cannot be returned.
