    Monroe Shocks & Struts 71335 front suspension strut for the 2001-2005 Volkswagen Passat and other vehicles damps spring movement and helps keep the front wheel under control. Designed with the right technology for each application, it aims to restore the factory drivability and handling precision of the car.

    • Monroe OESpectrum line with Twin Technology™ Active Control System that isolates impact-related noise, vibration and harshness
    • Rod displaced valving, tuned to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes for a consistent, smooth ride (on most applications)
    • All-weather fluid with special additives for extreme temperatures that helps reduce oil breakdown
    • PTFE-banded piston for consistent sealing between the piston and the pressure tube
    • Nitrogen gas charge reduces aeration to maintain tire-to-road contact (on most applications)
    • Chrome-plated piston, bronze reinforced rod guide bearing and special single lip seal for longer service life (where applicable)

    Quick facts

    • Part: Monroe Shocks & Struts 71335 suspension strut
    • Fits: 2001-2005 Volkswagen Passat and other vehicles
    • Position: Front
    • Condition: New

    Fluid on the strut body, a bouncy ride or a clunk over bumps can mean a strut is wearing out. Tires and other suspension parts can give similar signs, so start by looking over the strut body and mount with the engine off and the car parked; a shop can road-test the rest. If a worn strut is the cause, this one replaces it.

    Fits

    Besides the 2001-2005 Volkswagen Passat, it fits the 2000-2004 Audi A6 and the 2000-2004 Audi A6 Quattro. This listing is one strut. Two go on the front axle, one at each wheel, so order two and fit them together.
