Citroen Berlingo Rear Shock Absorber: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

Genuinely worth knowing: PSA Group's extensive platform sharing means this rear shock is often cross-listed with other Peugeot and Citroën models built on the same underpinnings.

Confirmed: Genuine Cross-Brand Parts Sharing Within PSA Group

Genuinely worth knowing when searching for parts: PSA Group's platform-sharing extends directly to rear suspension components — many rear shock listings cover multiple Peugeot and Citroën models together under a single part number, reflecting shared underpinnings across the group. If you can't find a listing specifically for your model, checking under a related PSA Group model of a similar era is worth doing.

The Part That Takes Every Bump Before You Feel It

Front suspension tends to get most of the attention since it also handles steering, but the rear shock absorbers wear too — often more subtly, with symptoms that are easy to write off as road noise until they get worse.

Before you buy: generation and left/right side both affect fitment. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

OEM Part Numbers

Accuracy note: genuinely worth knowing: left and right rear shocks are separate, non-mirror-image part numbers — confirm which side you need before ordering.

Right	Genuinely a different part number from the left-side shock — confirm side before ordering
Left	A genuinely different reference from the right-side shock above

For consistency, it's best to replace shock absorbers in pairs even if only one side has visibly failed.

What It Does

The rear shock absorber controls how quickly the rear suspension compresses and rebounds over bumps, working independently of the coil spring. A worn rear shock lets the back of the car bounce excessively after a bump instead of settling quickly.
