Front dampers — gas-filled type and brands

Tags: #shock-absorbers · #part-number

Factory type — gas-filled (gas-oil). The FAW Besturn X80 factory installs gas-filled (gas-oil / gas-charged) dampers on the front axle. This is confirmed by an OZON product-listing description for the front-left gas damper, a part specific to the X80¹²³⁴⁵.

Aftermarket brand experience — Stelekс negatively reviewed, Mazda dampers used unofficially. Stelekс-brand dampers are negatively reviewed by the community, described as inferior quality and characterized as being made "for resellers" rather than for genuine durability. Separately, Mazda dampers (not an official cross-listed part) are reportedly used by some owners despite not fitting exactly — an unofficial substitution rather than a confirmed drop-in replacement¹²³⁴⁵.
