Shock absorbers Monroe or OEM Volkswagen

Ive put dozens of monroe shocks on Prius from rock auto, no complaints

I got the same thing off of eBay for $900 low fronts (30mm), super low rear (40-50mm) sits level and i didn't notice a difference in ride stiffness with the Monroe's

Monroe is the way to go honestly. They are some of the best on the market for OEM fit.

Monroe gas charged, why spend hundreds when less is just as good as those expensive ones.

For stock, I've heard decent things about Monroe shocks.

I bought Monroes. They make an oem shock setup that works fine for daily driving

My experience with Monroe shocks over the last 42 years of working on cars. Monroe might have a lifetime warranty like the KYB has, accept even though the replacement is free, you still have the hassle of replacing the Monroe shocks every 2 to 3 years.

I put Monroe's on mine a while ago and I hate them

In my experience ever since Tenneco bought Monroe they have been trash. Back when I worked for Subaru the OE and KYB replacements regularly made it 100K, Monroe’s would give up in 40-50k.

Monroe shocks on pick-up truck, not abused, only lasted two years. KYB was major improvement.
