BMW F45 F46 F48 Right-Hand Front Damper by Bilstein B4 – Part No. 22-252951

Refresh the front suspension on your BMW with this right-hand front unit from Bilstein’s B4 range, part number 22-252951. Designed to restore precise steering, confident grip and smooth ride comfort, this offside front strut is a direct-fit, OEM-spec solution for BMW 2 Series Active Tourer and Gran Tourer models on the F45 and F46 platforms, as well as the BMW X1 F48.

We run Bilstein B4 units on customer cars and the feedback is consistently excellent. Expect tighter body control, improved stability under braking and a calm, composed feel over poor road surfaces. The B4 uses gas-pressure technology for consistent damping performance in daily driving.

Key reasons to choose this RHS front unit

  • Direct-fit replacement for the driver’s side front on UK cars
  • Gas-pressurised design for reliable, fade-free control
  • Factory-level comfort with confident handling and road holding
  • Ideal cure for knocking, bouncing or leaking original components
  • Maintains original ride height and geometry
  • Engineered to OEM standards for durability and safety

For balanced handling and even tyre wear, we strongly recommend replacing front dampers in pairs. Pair this right-hand unit with the matching left-hand side for the best result.
