Genuine Suspension Part Numbers?

[DanRM 0 1 Cars]

I'm popping into my local dealer tomorrow to pick up some parts for my 1.6 gti and I wanted to get a price check/availability on some rear dampers and front struts. (planning on replacing the lot as they're still the originals on there)

 

As the guy in there isn't the most helpful, I've always taken in part numbers and cross referenced them with what he comes up with. Problem is that I'm getting a little confused from the service box diagrams and numbers, as to what pieces I need to get to replace the front and rear.

 

Could anyone help me out?

 

Cheers

Front struts were absurdly priced new gen last time I checked, a good quality alternative is the Bilstein B4 front dampers at around 140 groats the pair.

 

Rear dampers you want 2 off 5206TE which are 306GTI6 spec rear dampers, and can be had brand new genuine for around 100 groats the pair.

Ahh cheers for that, will look into those bilsteins and see if the dealer can get any of the rear dampers for me

£112.30 for a pair of rear shocks from main dealer inclusive of vat.

 

Ask nice, you may get some discount

Ask him to get them on a Stock order as these will cost them less so should pass something onto you, VOR (Overnight) you get nothing off

VOR should give you 12.5 % off thats what i get anyway

 

15 % stock order

 

on most items

Shocks are not effected by VOR or stock, costs the dealer the same either way, its odd but certain items are like that. He can give 20% on either - but probably won't.

 

Oh, and in response to your original question the part numbers for the fronts are 5202N1 and 5202N2 for the left and right respectively, but as said the Billie B4's are far far cheaper and likely better.

Thanks for the replies lads, I'm going to start putting some money aside to get them done, I reckon I'll have a look into the rear beam at the same time as I have no history on it

What would be the best rear dampers to be replaced on a rallye?
