BMW Air Strut Rear Left (E65 E66) - Arnott AS-2979

Product Information

An air suspension strut is a key component in vehicles equipped with air suspension systems. It combines a traditional shock absorber with an air spring (a rubber bladder filled with pressurized air). The strut supports the vehicle’s weight, absorbs road impacts, and adjusts ride height for comfort and handling. Over time, the air bladder, seals, or internal shock can wear out, leading to ride and handling issues.

• Sagging or uneven ride height – one corner or the entire vehicle sits lower than normal.
• Rough or bouncy ride – poor damping from a worn shock or air bladder leak.
• Air compressor overuse – system runs constantly to compensate for air leaks in the strut.
