The originals are Monroes if I'm not mistaken. I've replaced them all round on the my F from Autodoc as well, with new ones same brand. Fairly cheap and easy to fit.

I had a shop recommended KYB, but I went for the cheaper Monroe brand on Amazon. I got it installed today and so far the ride is smooth.
Yes Monroe are junk. Anything Tenneco touches usually becomes junk. Monroe started coming OE on Audi in the last couple years and I am seeing them fail in as little as 15,000 miles.
Shock Absorber is always a good thing to a lot while you're thinking about it.
Am montat pe 2 masini diferite (O2 si O2 FL) monroe respectiv kyb si nu observ nicio diferenta intre ele. Ambele sunt ok si la confort si la stabilitate.
Not a mechanic, but the general consensus I read from mechanics when doing mine is that Monroe can be garbage and stick with KYB.
Went with Monroe oespectrum. No complaints so far
I change mine to bridgestone xm2plus size 185/50/15, rim 15/6.5j/et40. Monroe absorber with eibach spring. And put on ultra racing engine bar and rear antirollbar. Handling so nice, feel the different. I use for daily drive.
If you care about ride quality buy monroe.
I’ve rocked Monroe’s before and never had an issue.
