Product Information

Per Mercedes: Only replaceable in pairs

Depending on driving conditions, by 50,000 miles your shock absorbers performance will begin to degrade. By 80,000 miles they normally require replacement in pairs.

If you notice the following symptoms, shock absorber replacement should be considered:

  • Bouncy ride
  • Irregular tire wear
  • Poor steering response
  • Braking instability
  • Fluid leaking from the shock body

When the suspension system is working optimally, it will distribute force on the tires contact patches in a way that maximizes contact and performance. Worn shocks will increase dive and weight transfer and affect wheel alignment.

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

Better Performance B6s
I had a hard time going with the B6s as I didn't want to give up ride quality but wanted a little better performance. After installing The B6s on my ML320 I was amazed how much better it was driving through the Idaho mountains! I believe the ride quality is a touch harder than stock but the added performance is well worth the upgrade. Thanks FCP!

Excellent
Drive gently for few weeks until the new shock strut bed in after replacement. Now i really feel the excellent performance when driving in a bumpy surface, its much better than Bilstein 19-124551

Question Posted by a customer
How do these compare to the Sachs-Boge version?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
The 2 brands are similar but the Bilstein option will be a little more of a sport tuned option with increased valving.
