KYB Suspension Shock Absorber Mount P/N:SM5946
Help quiet a harsh, noisy rear suspension with the KYB shock mount SM5379, a direct-fit replacement rear upper mount for the 2001-2005 Volkswagen Passat. It secures the top of the rear shock absorber to the body and cushions road impacts through its rubber insulator, helping reduce the jarring, noise, and vibration that old, hardened mounts transmit into the vehicle.
This mount is built as an OE-quality replacement component designed for the specific application, providing proper mounting and isolation for the listed vehicle.
Clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, added noise and vibration in the cabin, or visibly cracked and hardened rubber are signs the mount may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before ordering to confirm the mount is the source.
