Product Information

Part number 31331116165 is a brand new, unused Genuine BMW part. 31331116165 is part of your BMW's front suspension. Coil springs are a critical component of the front suspension and should always be replaced in pairs. Proper coil spring fitment is usually determined with the last 7 of your BMW's VIN in a spring table. Coil spring shims and related hardware must also be replaced.

Genuine BMW parts are typically available at BMW dealerships. These parts are used to service BMW’s at your local BMW dealer and are the same parts that you can order and purchase at your local BMW dealer parts department. Genuine BMW parts are manufactured for BMW by some of the leading OE suppliers such as Bosch, VDO, ATE, and Hella. You can be assured that a part is Genuine based on a BMW stamping near the part number on the part itself.

BMW Shock and Struts diagram for 320i

Suspension Strut Bellows

A suspension strut bellows is a protective cover located on a vehicle's suspension strut or shock. It surrounds the shock shaft to protect it from dirt, debris, and moisture. This component helps prevent contaminants from damaging the strut shaft and seals, which could otherwise reduce the lifespan and performance of the suspension system. The bellows work with a bump stop to prevent damage from excessive suspension travel.

Suspension Strut Bellows Failure Symptoms
  • Visible Cracks or Tears: The most apparent symptom of strut bellows failure is visible cracking, tearing, or splitting of the rubber or plastic material. This exposes the strut to potential contaminants
  • Dirt or Debris on the Strut Shaft: If the bellows are compromised, dirt, moisture, and road grime can accumulate on the strut shaft, potentially causing rust or abrasions.

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
