Product Description

The Arrowhead Mounting Shock Top Rear Upper is a crucial suspension component designed for Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen vehicles. This mounting secures the top of the rear shock absorber, helping to absorb vibrations and maintain ride comfort. Its robust metal construction with a central rubber bushing ensures proper alignment and dampening of suspension forces.

This part is compatible with select models from Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen. It is commonly found in vehicles such as the VW Golf V, Golf VI, Tiguan, and Audi A3, among others. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before ordering.

Symptoms of a worn or failed shock top mounting include clunking noises from the rear suspension, increased road vibrations, uneven tyre wear, and poor handling or instability when cornering. You may also notice misalignment or visible damage around the mounting area.

Replacement of the rear upper shock mounting is recommended if you experience any of these symptoms or during routine suspension maintenance. Timely replacement helps restore proper suspension function and prevents further damage to related components.
