Title: Rear shock absorbers bumpstops??????
Post by: heavyd on February 04, 2014, 03:06:18 pm

Just had my MOT done today, and the tester showed me the rear bump stops had snapped, so the dustcovers just rest on the lower half of the shocks.
Does anyone know if these are available to buy separately, or do they come with the shock assembly?
Thanks in advance for any help :happy2:

Can't remember what I paid when I bought mine.

Yep, as above they can be bought seperately.

Had the same issue with our Tiguan when I bought it, so I got them from TPS and put them on no probs.
They were about £15 each, should be about the same for a mk5.

Thanks for info, I'll go to the dealers tomorrow.
