Detailed Description

SK-3561 is Arnott's new rear shock for the left side of the 2005-2011 Audi A6/S6 (C6). This replacement shock is engineered for the rear left position and is built as a complete new unit rather than a rebuilt component. Arnott SK-3561 is intended for drivers who need OE-style ride quality on an Audi A6, Audi A6 Quattro, or Audi S6 equipped with air suspension. This part cross-references OE numbers such as 4F0616031A and 4F0616031N for the same application.

The Arnott product line focuses on suspension replacement components that follow original equipment fitment and ride characteristics. For this application, the rear left shock is calibrated to support controlled body motion and consistent comfort on the Audi A6/S6 platform.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive bouncing or poor damping at the rear left corner
  • Uneven ride control on air suspension-equipped Audi A6/S6 models
  • Noisy or worn shock mounting points
  • Reduced stability during braking, cornering, or highway driving
  • Ride harshness caused by a worn rear shock absorber
