Product Details

Arnott REMANUFACTURED AS-2969 is built for drivers who need a rear left air suspension strut replacement for Bentley Continental GT, Bentley Flying Spur, or Volkswagen Phaeton models. The unit is rebuilt in the USA using the original OE shock and reservoir, then updated with new air-spring and sealing components to restore ride height control and damping performance. This remanufactured approach provides an OE-style solution for vehicles that use air ride suspension and adjustable damping at the rear.

This part cross-references Bentley 3W0616001 and Volkswagen 3D0616001 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Rear suspension sag or uneven ride height
  • Air leaks from a worn bladder, O-rings, or gasket
  • Loss of damping control or excessive rear bounce
  • Warning lights related to air suspension performance
  • Harsh or inconsistent rear ride quality

Installation Notes

Confirm rear left fitment before ordering. This strut uses a clevis lower mount and loop/eyelet upper mount, with a center-eye body end measurement and shoulder-of-stud shock rod end measurement. Mounting hardware is not included. Transfer or inspect related suspension components during installation, and verify system operation after installation to ensure proper ride height and damping response.

Quality Assurance

Arnott remanufactures this air strut by testing, cleaning, and repainting the OE shock and reservoir before rebuilding it with new internal and air-spring components. AS-2969 includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
