KONI 8245-1004 Adjustable Rear Suspension Unit for BMW 5 Series E60 Saloon

Transform the way your E60 drives with the KONI 8245-1004 rear suspension unit. This gas-charged, twin-tube adjustable shock delivers crisp body control, calm high-speed stability and a more composed ride on UK roads. It is a direct-fit back-axle damping solution for the BMW 5 Series E60 Saloon from 2003 to 2010 and an ideal upgrade when the original equipment has softened or started to leak.

We use these on customer cars and the results speak for themselves. Sharper turn-in, better traction over rough B-roads and a more settled motorway ride. Owners tell us the car feels tighter, more predictable and easier to trust in fast corners while remaining comfortable day to day.
