    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does KYB 555610 fit the 2002-2003 BMW X5 V8 4.6L?

    Yes. KYB 555610 is a rear shock absorber for the 2002-2003 BMW X5 V8 4.6L, which takes two on the rear axle.

    Is this KYB shock absorber a monotube design?

    Yes. This rear shock absorber is a high-pressure monotube gas design that keeps the gas and oil separate for fade-free operation and instant response.

    What does the floating piston do in the Gas-a-just?

    The floating piston sits in a high-pressure nitrogen gas area apart from the oil. It gives a comfortable ride in normal driving and adds performance on demand.

    Why is my rear shock absorber oily and does it mean it has failed?

    Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so an oily rear shock absorber can mean it is worn. KYB 555610 has a triple chrome plated piston rod to reduce seal wear.

    Is the Gas-a-just meant for towing or heavier wheels?

    Yes. Gas-a-just monotubes are designed for vehicles that work, tow and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
