It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2013 Volvo C30, 2004-2011 Volvo S40 and 2005-2011 Volvo V50. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
Monroe OESpectrum passenger car shock absorbers are designed to help restore a vehicle's original factory drivability. They are built for handling precision and control, and they filter out noise, vibration and harshness.
- Reduced noise, vibration and harshness: The Twin Technology Active Control System provides control under most driving conditions and isolates impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
- Handling: Full displaced valving is tuned specifically to each vehicle and adjusts to road extremes. The larger bore provides more efficient damping control for a consistent, smooth ride.
- Control and durability: A PTFE-banded piston provides consistent sealing between the piston and the pressure tube. A self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces excessive friction against the piston rod to help reduce premature wear.
- Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid contains special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown. A nitrogen gas charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade.
Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, fluid leaking from the shock body, rear sway or squat, and uneven tire wear. If a worn shock is the cause, this unit replaces it.
Monroe backs this shock with its Limited Lifetime Warranty and its Feel the Difference Guarantee.
