Vehicle Reference & Fitment Location
This part is removed from and designed to fit the Skoda Fabia Mk2 (5J) 2007-2014 Hatchback and Estate models. Below is a reference image of the exact vehicle generation this part belongs to, along with the manufacturer logo to guarantee authenticity.
Where is this part fitted & What does it do?
This complete suspension strut and coil spring assembly is mounted on the Front Right Side (Offside / O/S in the UK, Passenger side in LHD markets), clamping directly into the wheel hub swivel knuckle and upper suspension turret. It supports the vehicle's weight, absorbs road shocks, maintains optimal tyre contact with the road, and dictates front-end steering stability.
Part Details, Materials & Symptoms of Failure
Material: High-tensile steel coil spring, corrosion-resistant hydraulic damper cylinder, and heavy-duty upper mounting strut bearing plate.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Unit:
- Clunking, banging, or knocking noises when driving over bumps or turning the steering wheel.
- Visible oil leaks running down the side of the shock absorber body.
- The vehicle bounces excessively or feels unstable and loose during cornering or braking.
- Uneven front tyre wear or the front right corner sitting visibly lower than the left.
The Massive Benefit of Buying a Factory Original Part: Purchasing a complete pre-assembled genuine strut saves you hours of dangerous spring-compressor labor and guarantees proper ride height. Plus, buying a high-quality recycled original part saves you as much as 70% compared to buying new from a main dealer!

Brief Instructions: Safely elevate the front of the vehicle and remove the front right wheel. Unbolt the brake line bracket and ABS sensor wire from the strut body.
