Description

Restore the designed control and handling of your Volkswagen with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 334812, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front strut built to bring back the vehicle's original ride and stability. It installs as a direct-fit front replacement for the 1998-2010 Volkswagen Beetle, 1999-2006 Volkswagen Golf, 2007-2009 Volkswagen Golf City, 1999-2005 Volkswagen Jetta, 2007-2009 Volkswagen Jetta City, and 2004 Volkswagen R32 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.

OEA design: Made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, calibrated to restore original designed performance rather than change it.
Triple-lip fluid seal: Helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: Hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
Strong strut body and brackets: Thick construction that minimizes flex to help maintain correct alignment.

KYB designed the Excel-G to help keep electronic safety systems performing as intended, since they depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working together. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5181), and protecting the struts with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB123). Made in USA.
