Bilstein B6 Rear Damper — Part No. 24-107440 — BMW X5 E53 2000 to 2006

Transform the way your BMW X5 E53 drives with the Bilstein B6 rear damper 24-107440. This direct-fit rear shock unit delivers sharper response, flatter cornering and rock-solid stability while keeping comfort intact. It is the ideal OEM-plus replacement for tired factory shockers on the back axle, perfect for spirited road use, towing a trailer, family load-lugging and confident everyday driving.

What you will feel

• Uprated control for the rear of your X5 — tighter body control and confident high-speed stability
• Pressurised monotube design for precise damping and fade-free performance on B-roads and motorways
• Excellent composure when carrying passengers, luggage or towing
• Improved grip and reassurance in quick lane changes and emergency braking
• Works with standard springs — no need to change ride height
• Durable construction designed for long service life

We have fitted this part to customer X5 E53 builds and use it ourselves. Feedback has been consistently positive — less float, reduced rear-end wallow, improved steering feel and a more planted, confidence-inspiring ride compared with worn OE shock absorbers.
