KYB SM5936 Suspension Shock Absorber Mount - Rear Upper

KYB Rear Upper Strut Mount for Tiguan

KYB SM5936 is a rear upper suspension shock absorber mount for select Volkswagen Tiguan models. It replaces worn vibration insulators and helps restore quieter, more controlled suspension operation on the rear upper mount location.

Key Features

• OE-quality replacement strut mount from KYB Mount Components
• Helps reduce vibration and road noise transmitted through worn mounts
• Cushions impacts from bumps to reduce harshness in the cabin
• Rear upper mount application for select Volkswagen Tiguan vehicles
• Part number SM5936 for easy identification and ordering

Product Details

KYB Mount Components are built as application-specific replacement parts for suspension service. On the Volkswagen Tiguan, the rear upper mount helps isolate the body from suspension movement while maintaining proper support at the mounting point. Worn mounts can create extra noise, vibration, and a rougher ride, especially when the original insulator has hardened over time. This KYB SM5936 mount is made for the rear upper position on 2018-2024 Volkswagen Tiguan models listed below, including the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan and 2022-2024 Volkswagen Tiguan rear upper applications.

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

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or knocking from a worn rear upper strut mount
• Excess vibration felt through the body or cargo area
• Increased road noise from hardened mount material
• Harsh suspension response over bumps and uneven pavement
• Loss of proper rear suspension isolation at the mount point

Installation Notes

Fits 2022-2024 Volkswagen Tiguan, rear upper, except electronic controlled suspension. Fits 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan, rear upper. Fits 2018-2020 Volkswagen Tiguan, rear upper. Verify the rear upper mount location and suspension configuration before installation. Replace related suspension components as needed to maintain consistent ride quality and alignment performance.

Quality Assurance

KYB designs Mount Components as OE-quality replacement parts for specific vehicle applications. Front bearing plates are critical to steering performance and wheel alignment; while this part is a rear upper mount, KYB’s suspension component lineup is known for application-specific fit and function across the chassis.
