Help your vehicle ride smoothly and stay composed over bumps with the SACHS suspension strut, part number 317575, a front strut engineered to help restore original handling dynamics.

A suspension strut controls spring and body motion and is also part of the suspension's structure, so its condition affects both ride and handling. Signs a strut may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, fluid leaking from the strut body, knocking over rough roads and uneven tire wear. If a worn strut is behind these symptoms, this unit is designed to replace it. Diagnose the cause first, since other suspension parts can produce similar signs.
Replacing both front struts together is recommended for balanced handling. Follow the vehicle service information for the installation procedure, and have the wheel alignment checked afterward.
