KYB has released the first batch of its new fitting videos, to strengthen the technical support available to technicians.

The six videos feature four vehicles: Audi A4 (front), Renault Laguna (front & rear), Mercedes A-Class (rear) and Peugeot 407 (front & rear). All of these models have elements, which are difficult when replacing shock absorbers – the fitting videos demonstrate the correct way to replace them. The videos can be found on the KYB website, in the technical section: www.kyb-europe.com/videos.html.

Jean François Huan, Senior Product Manager for KYB Europe, commented: “We are working on more fitting videos for both shock absorbers and coil springs, to help technicians with vehicles which can give them problems. We hope that this will become a central place for finding useful support on replacing suspension components”.

KYB is the world’s largest supplier of original equipment shock absorbers to manufacturers (OEMs) around the world, including Audi-VW Group, Ford, Mitsubishi, PSA, Renault, BMW, Nissan and Toyota.  A quarter of all new cars leaving production lines worldwide are fitted with KYB shocks as original equipment. In addition to shock absorbers, KYB Europe also supplies a comprehensive range of coil springs and suspension mounting kits to the aftermarket.
