KONI 8245-1056 Rear Suspension Damper for BMW 5 Series E39 Touring Estate

Transform the back end of your BMW E39 Touring with the KONI 8245-1056 rear suspension unit. This adjustable, gas charged, twin tube red shock delivers tighter body control, smoother ride quality and far more confidence on British B-roads and motorways. Ideal as an uprated replacement shocker for daily use and fast road driving, it keeps your 5 Series estate composed when loaded with passengers, luggage or towing.

We fit these KONI units in-house on E39 estates and customer feedback has been consistently excellent.
