KYB Suspension Shock Absorber Mount P/N:SM5904
Silence a clunky, harsh-riding rear suspension with the KYB shock mount SM5645, a rear upper mount that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2009 Audi A3, 2006-2009 Audi A3 Quattro, 2005-2007 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2008 Volkswagen R32. It cushions the impacts from road bumps to reduce the jarring effect, noise and vibration that old, hardened insulators transmit into the vehicle, using OE-quality components designed for each application.
The shock mount locates the top of the rear shock and isolates it from the body. As the rubber ages and hardens, drivers often notice added noise, vibration or a knocking sensation over bumps. If a worn mount is the cause, replacing it with this KYB top mount helps restore quiet, controlled shock movement. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
