Hi I have a skoda Octavia vrs with 105k on the clock.
The suspension is original the rear suspension is knackard.
I will replace the rear shocks springs and bushes as I guess they will all go shortly.
Does anyone have any recommendation's for replacements.
Thanks
Dave

If you don't mind going aftermarket, I rate Koni FSD dampers on the Mk5 chassis cars. They're fine on standard springs, much better damping composure than the OEM shocks with no perceivable decrease in ride quality. If you intend on changing the springs, I'd personally go Eibach with the Konis but OEM is also fine.

In all fairness the difference between standard suspension and 100k mile standard suspension is massive.
