OE: 5430200Q0H Front Shock Absorber for Renault Sandero | Renault

Overview

Renault Sandero front shock absorber controls suspension movement at the front axle.
For this reason, Renault defines specific damping characteristics for compact vehicle platforms.
The shock absorber manages compression and rebound forces during braking and uneven road input.
As a result, steering response and ride comfort remain stable in daily driving conditions.

Vehicle Compatibility and Applications

This front shock absorber is applied on Renault Sandero passenger vehicles. This OE front shock absorber is also used across Renault small-car platforms, including Sandero and Clio front suspension applications.
Typical applications cover Sandero models produced for global markets.
The component supports standard front suspension layouts used on compact hatchbacks.
Moreover, similar suspension architecture appears across Renault and Dacia small car platforms.

Structural Design and Construction

The shock absorber features a tubular steel outer housing.
Therefore, the body maintains strength under repeated suspension cycles.
External mounting brackets are integrated for secure attachment to suspension components.
At the same time, the surface finish provides corrosion resistance for long-term operation.

Damping Stability and Driving Control

Front suspension components experience frequent load variation.
For this reason, the shock absorber maintains controlled damping during cornering and braking.
As a result, excessive front-end movement is reduced.
Moreover, stable damping helps preserve tire contact with the road surface.
This balance supports predictable handling and steering control.

OE Reference Integration

Renault assigns OE number 5430200Q0H to this front shock absorber.
This reference appears across multiple Sandero front suspension configurations.
Interchangeable OE numbers may apply depending on production year and market.
Therefore, vehicle and position verification is recommended before installation.

Service Life and Replacement Guidance

Shock absorbers wear progressively with mileage and road conditions.
For this reason, inspection is recommended during routine suspension service.
Replacement is advised when damping performance decreases or oil leakage appears.
As a result, timely replacement supports ride comfort and suspension geometry.

Installation Notes

This shock absorber installs directly at the factory front suspension mounting points.
No modification to original suspension geometry is required.
Professional installation ensures correct torque and alignment during service.
