FAQs
What vehicles is the KYB 339816 shock absorber compatible with?
This shock absorber is designed for the front right side of Toyota Avensis vehicles manufactured between 2008 and 2018. Always use a vehicle fitment tool or consult with a professional to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
Is this shock absorber sold as a pair?
No, the KYB 339816 is sold as a single unit for the front right side of the vehicle. For balanced suspension performance, it is recommended to replace shock absorbers in pairs.
What is the difference between a twin-tube and a monotube shock absorber?
The twin-tube design, used in the KYB 339816, has a two-tube construction: an inner tube containing the piston and an outer tube that acts as an oil reservoir. This design is generally more robust and less sensitive to leaks. Monotube designs use a single tube with a dividing piston and are known for superior heat dissipation.
Do I need to replace the coil spring when replacing the shock absorber?
Typically, the coil spring is a separate component and does not need to be replaced unless it shows signs of damage or sagging. However, the spring must be compressed and secured to the strut assembly during installation.
How can I tell if my shock absorbers need replacing?
Common signs include excessive bouncing after hitting bumps, a tendency for the vehicle to 'nose dive' during braking, visible fluid leaks on the shock absorber, uneven tire wear, and a generally less stable or 'sloppy' feel when steering or cornering.
What does 'gas-pressurized' mean for a shock absorber?
Gas-pressurized shock absorbers contain nitrogen gas. This helps to keep the hydraulic fluid from aerating (foaming) under stress, which ensures more consistent damping performance and prevents a loss of damping effectiveness ('fade'), especially during hard use or high temperatures.
What is the warranty on this KYB shock absorber?
Warranty information can vary. Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's official website for the most current warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Vehicle handling feels unstable or bouncy.
The shock absorber may be worn out or improperly installed. Check for leaks and ensure all mounting hardware is tightened correctly. Consider replacing in pairs if the other side is also worn.
Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension.
This could indicate a loose mounting bolt or a failed shock absorber. Verify that the shock absorber and its mounting hardware are securely fastened. If the noise persists, the shock absorber may need replacement.
Visible fluid leaks on the shock absorber body.
Fluid leaks indicate a seal failure. The shock absorber must be replaced immediately as its damping performance is compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification: Before installation, it is crucial to confirm that part number 339816 is compatible with your specific Toyota Avensis model year (2008-2018) and trim level. Use the provided vehicle make and model tool or consult with a parts specialist. Cross-reference with your vehicle's original part numbers (e.g., Toyota 4851005311 to 4851009V51). This shock absorber is for the *front right* position only.
Installation: Installation typically requires lifting the vehicle, removing the wheel, and disconnecting the old shock absorber. It is highly recommended to have this part installed by a qualified mechanic, as it involves safety-critical suspension components. Ensure all mounting bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications. Replacing shock absorbers in pairs (both front or both rear) is standard practice for balanced performance.
Care: Shock absorbers are generally maintenance-free. However, regular visual inspections of the unit for signs of fluid leaks or physical damage are advisable during routine maintenance. Ensure the surrounding suspension components are clean and free from excessive dirt or debris that could cause premature wear.
