In this video tutorial, we can see how it is possible to replace the rear shock absorbers in an Opel Astra, following some essential steps: the first thing to do is to get into the car, turn off the engine, and engage the handbrake; loosen the bolts of the rear wheel, without unscrewing them completely; lift the rear part of the car with a hydraulic jack and place safety stands under the car; continue unscrewing the rear wheel, then remove the wheel. After removing the wheel, before unscrewing the fixing bolts of the shock absorber, position the jack under the vehicle (rear part) and lift it slightly, to support the axle from below and compress the spring. There are two bolts to unscrew, so start with the lower bolt (using a 20mm socket and insert), while to unscrew the upper bolt we need an 18mm socket. Once the bolts are unscrewed, we can remove the rear shock absorber and proceed with the replacement. To install the new shock absorber, we insert it in the same way it was removed, aligning the hole properly, insert the bolts and start tightening the upper bolt first and then the lower one (if the bolt doesn't fit, simply raise or lower it slightly with the hydraulic jack). Remount the wheel and lower the car.
