New Monroe (factory supplier, found their stampings on the shocks) front shocks en route.
Pros: factory supplier
Vehicle:

Monroe OE Spectrum. It had better valving than what comes stock. Where I live it’s about 70-80 a pair so easy on the wallet and produces a nice smooth ride.
Pros: nice smooth ride
Cons: better valving needed
I use the Monroe version of these. Not too stiff of a ride but handle the extra weight very well.
Pros: handle extra weight well
Cons: not too stiff
I just put Monroes on all around and my truck rides like a Sherman tank.
Cons: rides like Sherman tank
In my house we have two Passat CC, one from 2008 and one from 2010. Both have DCC suspension. Both have the same kilometers (120,000 km) and the same engine, but one of them has a different behavior than the other. It seems that the DCC, the \"active\" part, does not work. When I change from \"Comfort\" to \"Sport\" I do notice that they get harder, but when I enter a roundabout it seems that the outer shock absorbers do not harden. I have changed the 4 shock absorbers for new \"RideSense\" from Monroe, like the originals and the same thing continues to happen. The change between \"Comfort\" and \"Sport\" is also noticeable, but I do not perceive that the active function that regulates the suspension when cornering is working.
Pros: noticeable change Comfort/Sport
Cons: active function not working
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat CC
Mileage: 120000 km

They fit! No rubbing anywhere. What a difference. Win, win. Handles just as good, so much smoother.
Pros: Handles good, so much smoother
Monroe is a long-time name brand and what I buy. They have worked well for me.
Pros: worked well
So far has worked out great, some models they don't fit because of clearance issues.
Pros: worked out great
Cons: clearance issues
