Original Aston Martin Rapide Shock Absorber

The Aston Martin Rapide rear shock absorber KD4318W002AA is a vehicle-specific suspension component designed to control suspension movement and support stable handling, ride control, and road contact.

A genuine Aston Martin replacement damper can be suitable for replacing an original unit affected by wear, leakage, reduced damping performance, accident damage, or previous suspension repairs.

For a used shock absorber, carefully inspect for oil leakage, damaged piston rod, corrosion, bent components, worn mounting points, damaged bushings, and signs of previous installation or repair. The exact condition is as shown in the product photographs.

Rear Suspension Configuration

Reference KD4318W002AA is specified for the rear suspension.

Shock absorbers can vary according to model year, suspension specification, electronic damping system, production version, and factory equipment.

Before ordering, compare the original component for length, mounting points, damper configuration, connectors where applicable, identification markings, and overall design.

Compatibility
