Product Details

These KONI Special Active FSD front shocks fit the 1998-2011 Volkswagen New Beetle. KONI Special Active shocks for the 1998-2011 Volkswagen New Beetle use KONI's patented Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) technology to deliver two damping curves in one fixed shock: soft for low-frequency road inputs (comfort) and firm for high-frequency body motion (control). The result is a daily driver that feels composed without compromising ride quality.

FSD reacts to the road, not to a driver setting, so there's nothing to adjust and nothing to wear out. Special Active works with stock springs or factory-spec lowering springs up to ~35 mm of drop, and is built on KONI's long-life twin-tube platform with the lifetime warranty on workmanship.

Features

  • Patented Frequency Selective Damping: soft on bumps, firm in corners
  • Zero adjustment required: FSD reacts to the road frequency automatically
  • Compatible with stock or mild lowering springs (up to ~35 mm)
  • Long-life twin-tube hydraulic design
  • Made in the Netherlands by KONI
  • Backed by KONI's lifetime workmanship warranty
