![How to change rear shock absorber on VW PASSAT 5 (B5) [TUTORIAL AUTODOC]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/v1pyG5k6Wiw/mqdefault.jpg)
I have a broken spring as well on my 4motion. This video should be just what I need to get the job done quickly and safely. Thanks, you’re the best!
I'm happy this video will be helpful for your Replacement. Thanks for watching, much respect 🙏🏾
I found this video helpful, however it should be noted that all fasteners with a green coating are single use "torque to yield" bolts, and should be replaced. Replacing foam bump stops is also advised, since they deteriorate and are inexpensive. Also, there are torque values for single-use bolts as follows:
Torque Specs
Sway bar mounts (inner) 15 lb/ft
Upper Shock mount bolts 33 lb/ft
Lower Shock Mount 52 lb/ft + 90 turn
All Inner Control Arm Bolts 70 lb/ft + 90 turn
All Outer Control Arm Bolts 70 lb/ft + 90 turn
Great additional resource!
Now that’s how you do a Tutorial my Brotha 👍
Great job !!!
I appreciate it! thanks for watching.
My spring was broken so there was no trouble getting it out. but now I see what I have to remove to get the new one back. Thanks from Sweden.
Did you get it in? Same for me, I was able to remove the broken coil and shock. Now I undid everything to put it back in. It just seems to long and doesn't fit😢 can't seem to clear the bottom tab even with everything undone including the camber bolt (which took 25h to remove BTW)
@@MarcAndreLag Yes, I don´t remember exactly how, but I removed or loosened everything that would give me an extra cm.
I had the car on a lift so I had pretty good space.
I also remember that I forgot to tighten the nut on top of the shock,
So I drilled a large hole from inside to get a sprocket down and thought that maybe I should have started with a hole and remove the nut first ?
Don´t know if that would be a good idea...
This video helped but it was way harder than it looks. 😁
@@DS0T0 cool a glimmer of hope I'll ask for a friend to help after 3h my arms were very tired
thanks! got KWs for the passat! 2004 4motion 5spd 1.8t for free just needed a fuel pump and new struts and control arms
Wow, good come up!
I have a 2004 passat 1.8t gls 4motion 5 speed, I love your channel. It's helping me refurbish the car, these are such well made durable cars.
Well done and very professional! I'm very impressed with your mix of sound, narration and background work tracks. Listing your equipment and associated links is also a spectacular resource for others. Keep it up and looking forward to seeing more!
Wow!!! Exactly the video I was looking for. If ever you can add to the title A6 C5 Quatro it could help others! Thank you very much
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching👍🏽
Excellent U Great Easy Peasy Thanks for nice and clear movie

Much respect for the acknowledgement and thanks for watching!
I could got it done only with 3x18mm main bolts and nuts on both sides. Then 2x 13mm uper + 1x18mm lower shock bolts. Plus light adjuster sensor 10mm nut on left. Thank you for tips, it was helpful.
Much respect and thanks for watching!
Excellent job as always! Keep it up!

Thank you,
Peter

@5:39 - What is he applying to the shock parts with a brush? What parts is he applying this substance to?
Do u have the name or part number for those lower plate mounts lower where the spring sits on
Que amortiguador reemplazo al viejito aver si me pueden ayudar
Master!!!
Respect!
Hi there !
Do you know why should I hear knocking from the top of these if I just replaced almost everything on my 4motion Passat Variant? I mean , there are brand new shocks , springs, dust protectors and (!) Shock absorber mountings (!) on the top as well, obviously on both sides , all of them are new parts , not previously used. This noise has started to drive me mad on minor bumps too. I have never met a kind of problem like this during working on cars. Please help Sir, if You can. Thanks in advance.
Cheers
did you solve it? could it be the yellow bump stops were put in cone facing up instead of down? th-cam.com/video/_JQQBcFQHB8/w-d-xo.html
@@Neo48Hi mate !
The RIDEX shock absorbers unfortunately weren't worth it, that I replaced last summer. My yellow "bump stops" are new too, these cost almost nothing as new, and you should never retain the previously used pieces that's an important advice, when you change absorbers... these "sponge" material dust covers , that you mentioned ( They were in correct position in mine, no problem with them ). Then I wanted to try this BILSTEIN pair of them (seen in this video, I compared the OEM part number from this Crafty's video to my car parts dealer's list ) , but I realised that the reusable spring plates are missing from my suspension, both the rubber and the metal too... so the 2nd task was to get these back , I bought an Audi A6 C5 Quattro used suspension pair @ friendly cost , pulled out those plates from them, and made the whole project last weekend. Now I can say it's as silent as I would've recently come from a saloon, with the BILSTEIN shocks on the rear ...
Good job , it worths every working hour
Ps.: now I'm almost over the edge on the rear , with brand new upper and lower control arm bushings , in the inner side, and outer (around the whole wheel hub) as well.
Is there any place other than the dealer to buy the lower coil spring isolator pads????
I had to buy used shocks :(
Thx
Good job guy
Much respect!
I undid everything last night my assembly seems to long and i just can't seem to clear the bottom tab
loosen the 2 lower control arm bushing bolts so the lower control arm can be dropped all the way without the bushing tension fighting against you. make sure to re-tighten them only with the suspension fully loaded in its resting position.
Lemar I need your help with my Mini! I sent you a email! I’d appreciate your help..
