Fitment questions
Will a shock absorber from a 2013 Fiat 500L fit my 2016 model?
The Fiat 500L ran as a single generation from 2012 to 2017, with a facelift arriving in 2017, so a 2013 and a 2016 car sit within the same pre-facelift generation and the suspension layout is the same. That said, whether a specific used damper swaps straight across depends on factors like spring rate variants that can differ within the run, so confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.
Does a shock absorber from a post-2017 facelifted 500L fit an earlier pre-facelift car?
The facelift arrived for the 2017 model year and while the basic platform carried over, suspension components can differ across that boundary and Findapart cannot confirm interchangeability as fact. Treat pre-2017 and 2017-onwards as separate fitment groups and ask the breaker to check the part number against your specific registration before agreeing a purchase.
Does the trim level matter — will a shock absorber from a Pop Star fit my Lounge?
Trim level does not affect shock absorber fitment on the 500L — Pop Star, Lounge, Urban, and Trekking all share the same suspension mounting points and damper specification for a given engine and build date. The one thing to be aware of is that Trekking models have raised ride height, so confirm with the breaker that the donor car's suspension spec matches yours rather than assuming any 500L damper will do.
Does engine size affect which shock absorber I need for a Fiat 500L?
For most standard 500L variants the damper specification is consistent across the petrol and diesel engine range, as the weight difference between common engines is relatively modest. However, spring and damper rate variants can exist within a model line, so ask the breaker to match the part to your registration rather than just the engine code alone.
Does it matter whether I need the NS or OS shock absorber on my Fiat 500L?
Yes — nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) front shock absorbers are handed and are not interchangeable, so make sure you tell the breaker clearly which side you need when requesting a quote. Rear dampers on the 500L are typically identical left and right, but it is still worth confirming this with the breaker against your specific build.
Can I use a shock absorber from a Fiat 500L MPW on my standard 500L?
The 500L MPW (the seven-seat extended version) has a longer wheelbase and a different rear suspension setup to carry the extra load, so rear dampers from an MPW are unlikely to be a straight swap onto a standard five-seat 500L. Front dampers may share more in common but you should confirm fitment with the breaker using both vehicles' registrations before purchasing any used part.
