What is Frequency Selective Damping (FSD)?

Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) is Koni's proprietary technology that allows the shock absorber to automatically adjust its stiffness. It senses the frequency of road inputs, providing a softer ride over bumps and a firmer response during cornering.

Do I need to replace both rear shocks at the same time?

It is generally recommended to replace shock absorbers in pairs on the same axle. This helps ensure balanced handling and consistent performance on both sides of your vehicle.

What is the main benefit of the Koni Special Active shock?

The main benefit is the adaptive damping provided by FSD technology. It aims to offer a more comfortable ride on uneven surfaces while improving the vehicle's stability and control during more dynamic driving situations.

Product Details

The Koni Special Active shock absorber, part number 8245 1310, uses Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) technology. This advanced system allows the shock to automatically adjust its damping characteristics based on road conditions. It's designed to provide a more comfortable ride on rough surfaces while still offering improved control and handling during spirited driving or cornering.

This rear shock absorber is a direct fit for the 2004 through 2010 BMW X3 (E83 chassis). Koni's FSD technology works by sensing the frequency of the road input; at lower frequencies, like those from bumps and rough pavement, the shock softens to absorb the impact. At higher frequencies, such as those encountered during cornering or quick maneuvers, the shock stiffens to provide better control and reduce body roll. This makes it a solid option for drivers looking to enhance their X3's on-road manners without sacrificing comfort.

When replacing rear shocks, it's often a good idea to consider replacing them in pairs to ensure balanced performance. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding the replacement procedure for your BMW X3.
