What makes the KONI Special ACTIVE technology different?

The Special ACTIVE technology is designed to automatically adjust damping based on road conditions. This means it can provide a more comfortable ride on uneven surfaces while still offering improved control and responsiveness when you need it.

Does this shock absorber come with any hardware?

This product is the rear shock absorber itself. It is designed as a direct replacement for your original part, so you will typically reuse your existing mounting hardware. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details.

What is the difference between this and a standard KONI shock?

The Special ACTIVE series is an updated design from KONI that focuses on adaptive damping. Unlike some standard shocks that have fixed settings, the Special ACTIVE aims to provide a broader range of performance, offering both comfort and sportiness depending on driving conditions.

Product Details

This is the KONI Special ACTIVE (RED) 8245 Series rear shock absorber, designed for specific BMW models equipped with M-Technik suspension. It's a twin-tube, low-pressure gas shock that replaces your factory unit to offer an improved ride experience. If you're looking to maintain a comfortable feel while getting a more responsive handling, this shock is a solid option.

KONI has built these shocks with their Special ACTIVE technology, which aims to adapt to changing road conditions. This means you get a smoother ride on rough surfaces and better control when you're pushing the car a bit harder. The twin-tube, low-pressure gas design helps keep the shock working consistently, preventing fade even during spirited driving. It's a well-built component that fits right into your BMW's rear suspension setup.

This shock absorber is specifically for rear-wheel drive BMW 2, 3, and 4 Series vehicles from roughly 2012 through 2021, particularly those with the M-Technik suspension package. It's a direct replacement part, meaning no modifications are needed for installation, making it a straightforward upgrade for your BMW's handling and ride comfort.
