- KYB Excel-G series strut, calibrated to restore original, designed performance rather than change it
- Triple lip fluid seal to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled in-house damping valves manage tire contact, steering response and body movement
- Thick strut bodies and brackets that minimize flex and maintain correct alignment in all conditions
Quick facts
- Part: KYB 341720 suspension strut assembly
- Fits: 2008-2017 Audi A5 Quattro and other vehicles
- Position: Front
- Condition: New
Oil on the strut body, a bouncy ride, nose dive under braking or uneven tire wear can mean a strut is worn. With the engine off and the car cool, look the strut body over for oil. Tires, bushings or alignment can give similar signs, so find the cause before you replace anything.
Fits
The Excel-G is made on the same KYB OE assembly lines and classed OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket). This strut is listed for a wide range of Audi models, including the 2008-2017 Audi A5 Quattro, the 2008-2017 Audi S5 and the 2009-2017 Audi Q5. If your car is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section. This listing is one strut; the 2008-2017 Audi A5 Quattro takes two at the front, and both are normally replaced together.
