Damp out rear-suspension bumps and help keep your tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 37438. This rear shock is a direct-fit replacement for the 2019-2025 Audi Q3, 2015-2021 Volkswagen Golf, 2015-2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, 2015-2021 Volkswagen GTI, 2019-2024 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2018-2025 Volkswagen Tiguan — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific fitment. A shock absorber controls suspension movement to help settle body motion and maintain ride comfort and stability.

  • Full displaced valving: tuned specifically to each vehicle, with a larger bore for more efficient damping control and a smoother ride.
  • PTFE-banded piston: provides consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
  • Nitrogen gas-charge: helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.
  • Twin Technology Active Control System: isolates impact-related noise, vibration and harshness, while OE all-weather fluid resists breakdown across extreme temperatures.

A self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces friction against the piston rod to help limit premature wear. If worn rear shocks are the cause of excess bounce, poor body control, or clunking over bumps, this OESpectrum unit is designed to restore factory drivability. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions

It dampens rear-suspension movement to help control body motion and maintain ride comfort and stability. Full displaced valving is tuned to each vehicle for smoother, more consistent damping.

Which vehicles does the Monroe 37438 fit?

It's a rear shock for the 2019-2025 Audi Q3, 2015-2021 Volkswagen Golf, 2015-2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, 2015-2021 Volkswagen GTI, 2019-2024 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2018-2025 Volkswagen Tiguan. See the Buyer's Guide tab.

Is this a front or rear shock?

It is a rear suspension shock absorber, per the manufacturer's OESpectrum listing for these applications.

What are signs my rear shocks may need replacing?

Common signs include excessive bounce after bumps, poor body control, uneven tire wear, or clunking over rough roads. Diagnose the cause before replacing, as other suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.

Should I replace both rear shocks at once?

Replacing shocks as a matched pair per axle is recommended for balanced, even ride control. This listing is for one shock; order two for a complete rear-axle replacement.
