Fitment position: Left hand front only. Drivetrain: xDrive all wheel drive only. Part number: 35-264583.

Why this B6 strut is a great upgrade

• Noticeably tighter body control and reduced pitch and roll on B-roads and motorway
• Firmer, more consistent damping thanks to Bilstein gas-pressure monotube technology
• Improved turn-in, better mid-corner composure and enhanced traction on uneven surfaces
• Engineered to work with standard springs for an OE-plus ride and handling balance
• Robust, long-lasting construction for daily use, spirited driving and loaded cars
• Individually road-tested and finely tuned by Bilstein for the F-series xDrive platform

Proven on our cars and customer builds
