Restore your Volvo's original ride control, stability, and handling with the KYB Excel-G Gas Strut 341217, a rear suspension strut that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2004 Volvo S40 and 2001-2004 Volvo V40 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment). KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components — calibrated to restore the designed performance, not change it. That focus earns it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and makes it a preferred choice among professional technicians.

  • Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: includes every quality component found in KYB's global OEM products.
  • Strong, thick strut body and brackets: minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.
  • Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
  • Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.

Because electronic safety systems rely on the suspension, brakes, and tires performing as intended, this KYB Excel-G helps keep those systems working as designed. KYB-recommended OEM replacement strut.
