Thanks @Carlston, much appreciated.

Thanks @CarlstonI have attached photo of build sticker. It's a bit battered so have taken 2 photos. I notice those shocks have a 2019 manufacture date so almost certainly MK3 OEM.

Thanks @chimaeravery helpful. I have just been through MOT history and seen that both front springs have failed in the past and one was replaced in 2021 and the other this year. Would have been good practice to replace shocks at the same time and I'm thinking this is why one shock has gone bad.

Thanks Toot and apologies. It is a 2.0 TDI elegance estate DSG 4x4. Just interested as they are OEM quality and local. There are so many different VAG part numbers for shocks out there!!

Hi all, I have just joined the forum after buying my first Skoda. It is a 2012 Superb estate DSG 4X4. It has done some miles (160k) but was the only one within budget and needs a few bits sorting... I want to start by replacing the front shocks, someone has an OEM set for sale locally which I think are MK3 and I wonder if they will fit? I have searched the web but haven't got a definite answer using the part numbers in photos. I look forward to being a member of the forum, looks a lot more sorted than some previous ones I have been a member of! Thanks in advance.
