What makes the Koni Special Active shock different from a standard shock?

The Special Active shocks use a frequency-selective damping system. This means they can automatically adjust their stiffness based on road conditions, offering a softer ride over bumps and firmer control during spirited driving or cornering.

Do these shocks come with everything needed for installation?

This listing is for the rear shock absorber only. It is designed as a direct replacement for your factory shock, but it's recommended to inspect and potentially replace any worn mounting hardware or bushings during installation.

Will these shocks make my Audi Q5 ride too stiff?

The Special Active technology is designed to balance comfort and performance. While they offer improved control and reduced body roll, they are engineered to absorb impacts effectively, providing a more comfortable ride than many performance-oriented shocks.

Product Details

This is the Koni Special Active rear shock absorber specifically made for the 2018 through 2022 Audi Q5, model code FYB. If you're looking to get a more connected feel from your Q5's suspension without sacrificing too much comfort, these shocks are a solid option. They are designed to work with the factory springs and mounting points, making installation straightforward.

Koni's Special Active technology uses a frequency-selective damping system. What that means in plain terms is the shock can adjust its stiffness on the fly based on the road conditions. On rougher roads, it softens up to absorb impacts, and on smoother roads or during spirited driving, it firms up to reduce body roll and keep the tires planted. This updated design offers a notable improvement over stock shocks, giving you a more controlled ride, especially when cornering or braking.

When you're replacing rear shocks, it's always a good idea to check the condition of any associated bushings or mounts. While these shocks are built to last, ensuring the surrounding components are in good shape will help you get the most out of the new dampers and maintain a quiet ride.
