1H0412303 Volkswagen BUFFER

It’s a pretty simple part, really. It basically cushions the suspension at the very end of its travel. Think of it like the last bit of give when your suspension is really compressing or extending. It absorbs energy and prevents harsh impacts. It’s not designed to do all the work – that's the job of your shocks and springs – but to catch things if those get near their limits. It mounts up near your struts or shocks, and it's positioned to contact the suspension components when things get really compressed, like going over a big bump or pothole. It stops the suspension from bottoming out completely. It prevents metal – to – metal contact, which would be a really nasty noise and could damage things. A lot of vehicles have them on both the compression and rebound sides, meaning when the suspension goes up and down. If your buffers are worn out, you’ll notice if you hit a big bump. It’ll feel like a really harsh jolt, almost like you're hitting the bottom of the travel. It can damage your shocks, struts, and other suspension parts over time if things are constantly bottoming out. It affects handling too, making the ride less controlled. They’re a wear item, and eventually need replacing. You can find them pretty easily, Fixparts Online carries a good selection, and they’re generally a straightforward repair. Replacing them before things get really bad will save you money in the long run by protecting the more expensive parts of your suspension. Volkswagen quality assured: Buffer (MPN 1H0412303) comes with a 12-month warranty!
