Bilstein Shock absorbers

  • Bottoming:

I converted a 760GLE to 5.0 Mustang power and everything I could get from IPD. The Bilsteins / urethane bushings and sway bars made that thing a weapon on the curves.

Pros: weapon on the curves
Vehicle: Volvo

JB74W. Stock springs. I have just fitted Bilstein 24-321730 front and 24-327336 rear. It has improved small bump compliance and the rebound rate of the rears is better matched to the springs.

Pros: improved small bump compliance
Vehicle: Suzuki Jimny
Part number: 24-321730, 24-327336

Bilstein Shock absorbers

In terms of the shocks themselves - Bilstein seem to have a solid reputation except for one former Bilstein fan on Youtube who had multiple failures in fairly quick succession a few years ago. I'm hoping their QA just took a hit for a while and the quality issues have been resolved, what's everyone else's experience of the longevity of these shocks? I doubt they'll hold up as incredibly well as the OEs have but I'd expect five years from them.

Pros: solid reputation
Cons: potential quality issues
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 85000 km

The part number of this absorber is 68533962AB. It has BILSTEIN sticker on it. So I tried to find wiring replacement by BILSTEIN themselves but failed.

Pros: BILSTEIN sticker
Cons: failed to find wiring

Sachs Shock absorbers

I have this creaking noise since I installed new Sachs shocks & top mounts. \nIt's dead silent on sunny days or when the temperature outside is above 15c. \nAny ideas since the mechanic says it's just bad quality rubber on top mounts and the only solution is to go with a Lemforder top mount.

Pros: silent on sunny days
Cons: creaking noise, bad quality
