KONI Special Active Damper Set for BMW 5 Series E61 Touring 2004 to 2010
Give your BMW 5 Series Touring the ride quality it deserves. This KONI Special Active damper set transforms the E61 estate with tighter body control, crisper steering response and impressive comfort on real British roads. Using KONI’s adaptive mechanical technology, these dampers react to surface changes and driving inputs to keep the car composed on B-roads yet supple on the motorway.
Perfect as a premium replacement for tired factory shockers or as a subtle performance suspension upgrade, this set is engineered to work with standard springs and M Sport springs. It is suitable for cars equipped with rear self-levelling air suspension, delivering a confident, stable feel without harshness.
Why this upgrade stands out
- Adaptive KONI valving for superb daily comfort with genuine handling gains
- Sharper turn-in and reduced roll for a planted, composed touring estate
- Smooths out potholes and expansion joints, ideal for UK road conditions
- Direct-fit, bolt-on replacement that restores control and confidence

- Durable, high-quality construction from a leading suspension specialist
