Product Information

Bilstein B6 Performance dampers are a performance upgrade to OE dampers designed to be paired with the OE factory spring. These dampers offer application specific valve settings with a monotube design to bring out the best handling performance of a vehicle. Each damper is rigorously tested for quality that meets or exceeds OE standards. B6 Performance dampers will provide improved safety and handling performance with the added benefit of world-famous Bilstein quality.

Note: Sold Individually.


WARNING: Proposition 65 information
Suspension Shock Absorber

If your suspension is feeling "bouncy" or "loose" it can likely be attributed to blown or worn shock absorbers. The purpose of shock absorbers is to dampen the recoil of the coil spring as your travel over dips and bumps in the road.

Suspension Shock Absorber Failure Symptoms
  • Noise over bumps
  • Squeaks
  • Leaks
  • Poor Handling
  • Harsh ride

About Bilstein B6 Performance

Bilstein shocks and strut perform due to their larger piston area and quality manufacturing. Bilstein shocks eliminate dead spots, and deliver extremely responsive valving for superior performance and handling, including consistent, fade-free damping and shorter braking distance. Made only from the highest quality materials, Bilstein shocks reduced valve fatigue means they last much longer than standard stock replacement components. If you’re looking to enhance the performance of your suspension system, the Bilstein B6 Performance series is the best solution to improve your car’s ride. With unbelievable control, precise handling, and incredible comfort, you'll soon discover there is, quite literally, nothing like it. This class shock is considered by us at FCP as performance upgrade to a factory shock that is maintaining the stock ride height.

Rear Bilstein B6 series fitment on D2 S8
Be aware- The Bilstein B6 series rear shock piston/shaft for the Audi D2 application is 14 mm in diameter. The oe Sachs shocks have a 15mm diameter shaft. Because of this incorrect shaft diameter by Bilstein the OE dust cover and bump stop immediately fall to the bottom of the shock shaft rendering the dust cover useless in service. Incorrect, unsightly, and Arrrgh!
