fabia vrs shock absorbers nackered

Featured Replies

Hello im after bit of onformation and help please. Ive got a fabia vrs mk1 and my rear shock absorbers are nackered. Been searching the net and not having much luck my car is lowered 50mm so i rekon i need sport absorbers. What makes can i get at a reasonable price please dont want be spending more than 140 for a pair. Thanks in advance

I'd personally be looking at replacing all four shocks front and back. If you go putting some nice new ones on the rear paired up with the old factory ones at the front this could upset the balance and handling of the car somewhat.

I know they say 40mm maximum but they should be ok. Your other options are upgrading to the B8s but they are £500 for a set of four or going for oem rear shocks and seeing if they last.
