Sachs 312 639 – Suspension Shock Absorber (Front)

Description

Sachs Shock Absorber 312639 – For Audi Vehicles

Manufacturer Part Number: 312 639

Product Overview

The Sachs Shock Absorber is engineered to OEM standards, delivering premium-grade construction and reliable performance for your Audi. As a critical component of your vehicle’s suspension system, the shock absorber is essential for maintaining optimal handling and ride comfort. With its advanced design, this shock absorber effectively dampens the bouncing motion of the coil springs, ensuring a smooth driving experience.

Over time, shock absorbers can wear out and exhibit signs of leakage, indicating that the internal seals have failed. If your vehicle bounces excessively when pushed down at each corner, it’s time to consider a replacement. Typically, shocks last around 100,000 miles, but many can exceed that lifespan with proper maintenance.
