Soak up rough pavement and help keep your tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 5659. This rear-position shock installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2008 Chevrolet Astra and the 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details. Designed to help restore a vehicle's original factory drivability and ride control, the OESpectrum line filters out impact-related noise, vibration and harshness for a composed feel.

  • Reduced NVH: the Twin Technology Active Control System delivers control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
  • Tuned damping: full displaced valving is tuned to the vehicle and adjusts to road extremes, while a larger bore provides more efficient damping for a smooth, consistent ride.
  • Control and durability: a PTFE-banded piston maintains consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
  • Nitrogen gas-charge: helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.

Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the Monroe 5659 shock fit?

It's a direct-fit rear shock absorber for the 2000-2008 Chevrolet Astra and the 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact application for your vehicle.

Is this a front or rear shock absorber?

The 5659 is a rear-position suspension shock absorber.

What are signs my shock absorbers may need replacing?

Excessive bouncing after bumps, a floaty or unstable ride, nose-diving under braking, and uneven or cupped tire wear can indicate worn shocks. Diagnose the cause before replacing.

What does the nitrogen gas-charge do?

The nitrogen gas-charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, which supports improved ride and handling.

Should I replace shocks in pairs?

Replacing shocks as an axle pair is a recommended best practice for balanced, even ride control. This listing is for one shock absorber.
