FCS 3335576 Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly - Front

Front Strut and Coil Spring Assembly for VW and Audi

FCS 3335576 is a front suspension strut and coil spring assembly built for specific Volkswagen and Audi applications with a 55mm outside strut housing diameter. It is listed for non-sport suspension setups and provides the measured compressed length, extended length, and stroke length needed for accurate suspension service.

Compatible With 2012-2016 Volkswagen Eos, front; 2011-2014 Volkswagen Jetta, front; 2006-2013 Audi A3, front; and 2006-2013 Audi A3 Quattro, front. This part number, FCS 3335576, is a direct-fit suspension service option for vehicles that match the listed housing diameter and suspension notes.

Key Features

• Part type: suspension strut and coil spring assembly
• Front position application
• 55mm outside strut housing diameter requirement
• Non-sport suspension application notes where specified
• Measured compressed length: 14.49
• Measured extended length: 21.77
• Measured stroke length: 7.28
• FCS 3335576 for targeted OE-style suspension replacement

Detailed Product Overview

FCS 3335576 is engineered for front suspension service on select Volkswagen Eos, Volkswagen Jetta, Audi A3, and Audi A3 Quattro models. The assembly format combines the strut and coil spring into one service unit, which helps restore front suspension geometry when the original components are worn, noisy, or no longer maintaining proper ride height. The listed dimensions support accurate comparison during replacement planning, especially on vehicles that require a 55mm outside strut housing diameter and exclude sport or magnetic ride control suspension configurations.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Front-end bounce or excessive road movement
• Uneven ride height from worn suspension components
• Noise from fatigued strut and spring assemblies
• Reduced steering stability over rough pavement
• Ride quality loss on high-mileage Volkswagen and Audi front suspensions

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s front strut housing diameter before ordering. Confirm that the application is not equipped with sport suspension or magnetic ride control suspension, as noted in the fitment data. Compare the existing assembly dimensions to the listed compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to ensure proper replacement selection. Professional installation and a post-service alignment are recommended after front suspension replacement.

Quality Assurance

FCS suspension components are cataloged for specific vehicle fitment and dimensional matching. For this part, the key quality check is application accuracy: 55mm outside strut housing diameter, front position, and the listed Volkswagen and Audi model coverage for FCS 3335576.
