KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:345036
Get the rear of your 2012-2018 Volkswagen Jetta back to its designed ride control with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber (P/N 349109), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock. This KYB shock absorber is built on the same OE assembly lines KYB supplies to new-vehicle manufacturers, using the same OE-quality components and calibrated to restore original performance rather than change it — the reason the Excel-G carries KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
This is a rear-position gas shock. Sold individually; for even, balanced damping, replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair. Fitment: 2012-2018 Volkswagen Jetta — see the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your engine and configuration.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Does this KYB gas shock absorber fit my Volkswagen Jetta?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2012-2018 Volkswagen Jetta. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your specific engine and configuration before ordering.
What position does the KYB 349109 install in?
This Excel-G is a rear-position shock absorber. It is sold individually, so order two to replace both rear shocks.
What type of shock is the KYB Excel-G?
It's a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock built on KYB's OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance.
Should I replace both rear shocks at the same time?
It's recommended. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair helps keep damping even and balanced across the axle, though this listing is for one shock.
What does the triple lip fluid seal do?
The triple lip fluid seal is designed to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out of the shock, helping maintain consistent damping performance.
