Detailed Description

Arnott SKE-3830 is a rear suspension shock absorber for the Land Rover Discovery V with VDS. It is built as a direct OE-style replacement to help restore the controlled, adaptive feel expected from the original suspension system. The monotube design and electronically controlled damping work together to maintain consistent rear suspension response across changing road conditions.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. If you are replacing a worn rear electronic shock on a 2021-2025 Land Rover Discovery, this part number SKE-3830 is the correct reference to verify against OE and interchange listings.

What It Helps Address

• Rear-end bounce or reduced damping control
• Excessive body movement over uneven pavement
• Loss of adaptive ride response from a worn electronic shock
• Noisy or degraded rear suspension performance
• Ride quality changes caused by aging OE shock components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify that the vehicle is a 2021-2025 Land Rover Discovery V (L462) with Variable Damping System before ordering. Confirm the upper and lower mount styles match the existing rear shock, and inspect related suspension components for wear during replacement. Because this is an electronic shock absorber, proper connector and system verification should be completed before final installation.

Quality Assurance

Arnott tests each shock to meet its quality standards for fit, performance, and longevity. The SKE-3830 is engineered to restore comfort, control, and stability in the rear suspension of the Land Rover Discovery V.
