What is the Koni Special ACTIVE damping system?

The Special ACTIVE system uses hydraulic valving that automatically adjusts the shock's stiffness based on the vehicle's movement. It softens for comfort during normal driving and stiffens during cornering or braking for improved control.

Does this shock absorber come with any mounting hardware?

This product includes one Koni Special ACTIVE shock absorber. It is designed to use the original mounting hardware from your vehicle. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details.

What is the difference between Special ACTIVE and other Koni shocks?

Product Details

This is the Koni Special ACTIVE (RED) 8245 Series front right shock absorber. You get one twin-tube, low-pressure gas shock absorber designed to replace the original on the front right side of your vehicle. This shock is built to offer an improved ride by adapting to changing road conditions, providing a more comfortable feel without sacrificing control. It's a well-built component that aims to enhance your driving experience.

Koni's Special ACTIVE shocks use a unique hydraulic system that automatically adjusts damping based on how the car is moving. If you're cruising on the highway, it softens up for a comfortable ride. But when you hit a corner or need to brake hard, it stiffens up instantly to keep the car stable and planted. This makes it a great option for daily drivers who also enjoy spirited driving. The twin-tube, low-pressure gas design helps prevent foaming and ensures consistent performance, even under demanding use.

This shock absorber fits a range of BMW 5 Series models, including the 528i, 535i, and 550i from 2011 through 2016, as well as the 2017 530i. It's designed as a direct replacement for the original part, making installation straightforward for a qualified mechanic.
