Koni Special Active Shock Absorber Kit for BMW 3 Series E46 Saloon/Sedan - FSD Replacement - Standard Suspension (Excludes Sport, M-Technik & X Models)

Transform your BMW E46 saloon with Koni’s latest ride control upgrade

Give your 3 Series a proper refresh with Koni’s Special Active damper set. This is the successor to the original FSD units, using frequency reactive hydraulic valving that adapts to road surface and driver input. The result is calmer ride quality on broken tarmac and tighter body control when you pick up the pace. It is a direct-fit upgrade for standard height cars and a superb replacement for tired OEM shocks.

If you want your E46 to feel planted on B-roads, composed on the motorway and smoother over potholes and speed humps, this is the fast-road friendly solution enthusiasts choose for everyday use.

Key benefits

• Frequency-reactive valving for comfort on rough surfaces and confident control in corners
