Febi Bump Stop - 37138

A bump stop, also known as a jounce bumper, is a critical component in your vehicle's suspension system. It's typically made of rubber or foam and prevents the suspension from compressing excessively during hard impacts, such as hitting potholes or speed bumps. This protects your shock absorbers and other suspension components from damage, ensuring a smoother ride and better vehicle control.

Common indicators that your bump stop may need replacement include a harsh 'bottoming out' sensation when driving over bumps, unusual clunking or thumping noises from the suspension, or visible signs of wear, cracking, tearing, or degradation of the rubber or foam material. A professional mechanic can accurately diagnose the condition of your bump stops.

This bump stop (Febi Part Number: 37138) is specifically designed for the rear suspension of certain AUDI A6 C7 1.8 (2014-2018, CYGA engine, OE part `4G0512131D`) and AUDI RS7 4G 4.0 (2013-2018, OE part `4G0512131D`) models. It is crucial to verify your vehicle's exact specifications and original part number to ensure correct compatibility before purchasing.

While some experienced DIYers might attempt it, Febi products typically do not include detailed fitting instructions. Given that suspension components are integral to vehicle safety and handling, professional installation by a competent individual is strongly recommended. This ensures correct fitment, optimal performance, and adherence to safety standards.

No, the Febi Bump Stop - 37138 is supplied as a single unit and sold individually. If you intend to replace both rear bump stops on your vehicle, you will need to purchase two separate units.

This often indicates a worn, damaged, or missing bump stop. Inspect the bump stop for visible signs of deterioration, tears, or incorrect seating. Professional inspection of your entire suspension system is recommended to identify the root cause.

If the bump stop shows physical damage, it needs to be replaced. A damaged bump stop cannot effectively protect your suspension components. Consult a professional for replacement.

Since no specific fitting instructions are provided with the product, it is highly recommended to seek professional installation. Suspension components are critical for vehicle safety and performance, and incorrect installation can lead to serious issues.

Immediately stop installation. Double-check your vehicle's exact make, model, year, and original equipment (OE) part number against the compatibility information provided for Febi Bump Stop - 37138. Ensure your vehicle matches AUDI A6 C7 1.8 Rear (14-18 CYGA) or AUDI RS7 4G 4.0 Rear (13-18) and the OE part `4G0512131D`. If there's a mismatch, do not attempt to force fit the part.
