The things that surround us are becoming more and more intelligent - especially in automotive engineering. Key word: active chassis. "Depending on the situation or what the driver wants, they oscillate between sporty and comfortable, sometimes with more or fewer intermediate stages or damping force spread. This ensures the perfect driving experience and safety,” explains Dimitris Kouvaras, Global Training Manager at the BILSTEIN Academy. The other side of the coin: If shock absorbers for active chassis are defective or worn out, replacements are significantly more expensive than conventional "material". Owners of older cars in particular are therefore looking for affordable alternatives to original parts. Although a replacement from the aftermarket that reflects the current value is significantly cheaper, it only supports active control in the rarest of cases. This turns an active high-tech chassis into a passive one. However, workshops that want to offer their customers a better solution can use the BILSTEIN aftermarket shock absorbers B4 and B6 with the DampTronic® addition. These reflect all the features of the original shock absorbers and can be installed just as easily using the plug-and-play principle. BILSTEIN also offers its B4 air suspension modules for vehicles with air suspension. In contrast to many remanufactured products (processed old parts), they continue to support active chassis control.
BILSTEIN B4 DampTronic® and B6 DampTronic® in comparison
The quality and functionality of the BILSTEIN B4 gas pressure shock absorber is 100% the same as the factory-installed components - but is less expensive. This applies to the actively controllable DampTronic® variants as well as to the basic product that is used with passive chassis. The BILSTEIN B6 DampTronic® is for people who have to master particularly tough everyday conditions with their vehicle or simply want to increase its performance. It stands for improved series replacement in combination with active chassis. Going beyond the original, it offers a noticeable increase in safety and performance - without lowering or changing springs and without additional TÜV registration. Its higher power reserves come into play in the following scenarios in particular: on poor or winding roads, with a sporty driving style, in dangerous situations, when towing a trailer, when transporting external loads - such as bicycle racks or roof racks - and generally with heavily loaded vehicles.
BILSTEIN B4 air suspension modules
Defective air spring modules are often replaced with relatively inexpensive remanufactured parts. However, the price advantage is paid for by various disadvantages in terms of performance and functionality. The BILSTEIN B4 air suspension modules, on the other hand, represent a real alternative to expensive original parts. They are one of the few aftermarket options that are completely brand new, while processed old parts include used shock absorbers with an uncertain wear status. In addition, manufacturers of remanufactured components often shut down the electromagnetic control valve instead of replacing it. This turns a high-end system with active control into a passive one.
With BILSTEIN B4 air suspension modules or BILSTEIN B4 DampTronic® and B6 DampTronic® shock absorbers, on the other hand, cars drive like they did on the first day. Workshops that have little experience with active or air suspension systems not only get the right spare parts from BILSTEIN, but also a great deal of know-how. You can get support from the YouTube channel "BILSTEIN technical“, valuable installation, diagnostic and repair tips at workshop.bilstein.com or www.repxpert.de as well as interesting training courses. These are available free of charge as face-to-face training, live events in the digital classroom or - brand new - in the form of e-training that can be carried out independently.
