Bilstein 44-262235 Rear Nearside Pneumatic Strut for BMW 7 Series E65 E66 E67

Restore that limousine-smooth ride and confident handling on your BMW with the Bilstein B4 rear left air ride strut, part number 44-262235. This OEM-quality air spring shock absorber is a direct-fit unit for the back left corner on right-hand-drive E65, E66 and E67 models, designed to bring back factory ride height, comfort and stability while curing leaks, sagging and constant compressor running.

We run Bilstein B4 units on our own cars and our customers love the transformation. Expect crisp control, quiet operation and a supple, composed rear end on British roads. If your 7 Series is sitting low on one side, bouncing, or showing a suspension warning, this premium replacement air strut is the smart fix.
