Experience w/ KYB?

[skippyscallop]

Trying to replace some of my suspension components with stuff that's cost effective and either close to, or somewhat more reliable than stock. Anyone have experience with KYB shocks?

I've got them on an old pickup and a camry and fwiw they pretty much seem like factory replacements on those.

Good oem. Big on vws. I did Koni FSD and loved them. They don't like lowered speeds. On Corksport adjustable and love these more.

Thanks, everyone. I appreciate everyone's feedback and am glad to hear positive things from everyone. Happy Thanksgiving!

I looked on KYB's website for an application guide and nothing seems to come up for the front struts. Is anyone aware of a front strut assembly kit from KYB that would fit our '08 MS3 properly?

Otherwise, can anyone make a solid recommendation for an OEM strut assembly kit? Is Sachs or Monroe good to go?

partsgeek.com says the following KYB assemblies fit, but I can't find anywhere else on the web that will corroborate: W0133-1810143 (Front-Left) W0133-1810142 (Front-Right)

Get the FSD usually has a sale. Replace bump stops, strut mounts, and strut bearings.
