Product Details

The KONI Special ACTIVE shock absorber uses a twin-tube, low-pressure gas design. This setup helps maintain consistent damping performance, which can make a notable difference in how your Audi A6 handles on the road. If you're looking to improve the feel of your daily driver without going for a full coilover setup, these shocks are a solid option.

These shocks are built with KONI's reputation for well-built suspension components. The Special ACTIVE line is designed to offer an improved ride quality and better control, especially during spirited driving or when encountering uneven road surfaces. They are engineered to work with both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive models of the A6, and also fit the A7 Quattro. This means you get a more responsive feel from your steering and a more planted sensation when cornering.

When installing these, you'll find they are designed to fit directly onto your existing suspension points, making the job straightforward for someone familiar with suspension work. They are a popular choice for Audi owners wanting a noticeable upgrade in ride comfort and handling dynamics.
