Bilstein 24-115926 B6 Performance Rear Shock Absorber for BMW 1 Series E81 E82 E87 E88 (Monotube Gas-Pressure Rear Damper) Fits 116i-135i, 116d-123d

Bilstein B6 Rear Damper Unit - BMW 1 Series E81 E82 E87 E88 - Part No. 24-115926

Give your BMW 1 Series a serious suspension refresh with the Bilstein B6 rear damper, part number 24-115926. This gas-charged monotube rear shock is a premium direct-fit upgrade that delivers sharper handling, tighter body control and confident road holding while keeping day-to-day comfort intact. Ideal for fast road driving and daily use on British roads, it is a superb replacement for tired factory shocks on the E81, E82, E87 and E88 platform.

We have installed these units for BMW 1 Series owners across a wide spread of petrol and diesel models and the feedback is consistently positive. Expect more precision on turn in, reduced squat and roll, better traction over bumps and a planted rear end on uneven tarmac. Keep your original springs for an instant performance lift that works brilliantly on 116i, 118i, 120i, 125i, 128i, 130i, 135i as well as 116d, 118d, 120d and 123d.

Why this B6 upgrade works

• Gas-charged monotube design for consistent damping and precise control
• Direct replacement for the rear axle with factory mounting points
• Works with standard springs - no lowering required
• Improved grip, braking stability and high-speed composure
• Strong durability and high load reserves for UK road conditions
• Engineered by Bilstein for real-world road use and longevity

What you will feel

• Cleaner, crisper response through corners and lane changes
• Better rear-end stability on rough surfaces and motorway joints
• More traction out of junctions and roundabouts
• Confident, predictable ride without harshness
