Koni Special Active Rear Shock for 2009-2017 Volkswagen Tiguan (8045 1228)
This product will be available for sale in 2 weeks, but you can pre-order now to receive 10% discount!
Fits 2009-2017 Volkswagen Tiguan and Tiguan Limited.
The Koni Special Active series (8045 Series) represents the next generation of premium shock absorbers, utilizing Koni's patented Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) technology. This twin-tube, low-pressure gas rear shock is engineered to solve the traditional compromise between handling and comfort. By mechanically sensing the road surface, the internal valving adjusts damping forces in real-time without the need for electronic sensors or cables.
This rear shock replaces the worn factory unit to restore chassis control, reduce body roll in corners, and maintain a compliant ride over harsh expansion joints and rough pavement. The durable red finish identifies Koni’s Special Active line, designed for drivers who demand better stability and grip for their VW Tiguan without sacrificing daily driveability.
- Manufacturer Part Number: 8045 1228
- Series: Special Active (Red)
- Shock Design: Twin-tube low-pressure gas
- Location: Rear
- Patented FSD technology for adaptive damping
- Improved cornering stability and ride compliance
