HI all,

 

I am looking to replace the shock absorbers/dampers/struts on my 2011 Skoda Octavia Scout 2.0 diesel and i was wondering if any of you guys could give me feedback on the above KYB shocks? Your comments/recommendations appreciated.

I had some on my Gen 2 Subaru Liberty / Legacy.  They were OK.  Nothing amazing - probably equal or slightly better than OEM but well priced.  I'd be inclined to cross-shop the OEM equivalent Sachs or Bilstein as I really don't think the Japanese do dampers very well.

No experience but as above can't go wrong with with either Sachs or Bilstein.

Just swapped out some 5 year old KYB Excel-G shocks. Both were completely shot, replaced with Bilstein B4 shocks and new bumpstops. Difference is like night and day!!
