Rear Shocks for Pol0

monseiur · 2022-05-09 13:17:56

OH has a 2014 VW Polo Petrol Automatic. Needs rear LH shock so going to replace both. Just looking for opinions on different brands and should I steer clear of cheap ones. Example as follows, all gas filled : Optimal €27.00 each, Kavo Parts €30.00, Japanese Parts €68.00, Bilstein €46.00 Stark €51.00 Thanks.

Bilstein would be a recognised brand with a good reputation

I would second the Bilstein shocks. They have a good reputation and are a quality product. You get what you pay for with them.
