Yes, those are the correct front struts. These are the shocks.

 

Thank you......but it mentions two different ones for each side...I assume one is magnetic...?
How do I know which are the correct ones...

I se these are not loaded.....will using my old springs be ok...?

 

Check the RPO codes for your car. The label should be under the trunk floor door. You have either GNA or GNB. Those are the differences. Looks like it's the same part number either way for the struts. They both are magnetic ride control. As for the shocks, they are different left and right. F55 is the code for magnetic ride control. The XTS uses air springs for the rear suspension. No need to replace unless they are not holding the air pressure.

 

Cool...I will check the RPO...
These are not loaded....do you think I should use me old springs and have them changed over...?

As far as the rears go...I swear I'm hearing a slight clunk there too occasionally...we're gonna keep the car a while so I might go ahead and do all four anyway...
Thank you for your help but don't be surprised if I am back with more questions LOL

 

Yes, everyone just replaces the strut cartridge. The springs should be fine. Questions are what we're here for!

 

I can not find the RPO sticker.....where to heck is it?

 

Should be on the part you lifted up to get under there. Stuck on the bottom.

 

Nope....nothing under there...

 

My bad. You actually have to remove the black plastic panel with the cargo net hooks.

 

????????????????????????????
That big plastic thing that has the air pump in it? The only thing I saw there is a couple of flatish (almost flush) black plastic plugs about the size of a quarter...those?
I have no cargo hooks that I am aware of...
Man...why do they hide it this way..??? LOL

 

Okay, full disclosure...I have not looked at the label in my car. The label was under the spare cover in my STS. I found earlier posts on the location on the XTS. It's the long black plastic trim piece right inside the trunk. I purchased a build sheet from www.compnine.com for $10 that listed the codes and nomenclature of everything installed on your car by the VIN. The best way to go IMHO. If you still want to find your label, search RPO label in this forum. The black trim panel in my trunk has a chrome ring at each end to clip the cargo net to.

 

Ok...I see that panel now at the far rear and I see the chrome hoops a cargo net would hook to...
Funny I never saw those before! Lol
How in heck does it come off?
Those loops don't seem to budge and I see no fasteners at all...
I tugged on it a little in case it snapped into place somehow but it does not give and I don't want to break it...

There are plastic covers around the chrome rings that snap off. Under those are some torx screws holding it on. Once the torx screws are removed, it should pop off. Are you without a cargo net in your trunk? It comes in handy for things that you don't want rolling around back there.

 

What would the correct shocks and struts be for a 2013 Luxury XTS?

Thanks

 

The struts and shocks listed above are the correct ones for the 2013 Luxury XTS also.
