Sachs 315 526 – Suspension Shock Absorber (Front)

Description

Sachs Shock Absorber Front (B4 Touring) 315526 – For Mercedes-Benz Vehicles

Manufacturer Part Number: 315 526

Product Overview

The Sachs Shock Absorber is engineered to restore your Mercedes-Benz’s original handling dynamics while meeting the highest safety, comfort, performance, and quality standards. Designed with premium-grade construction, these shocks provide exceptional dampening characteristics thanks to their application-tuned valve system. This pairing ensures longevity while delivering superior comfort and control for your vehicle under any road condition.

As a critical component of your suspension system, the shock absorber plays a vital role in dictating your vehicle’s handling and ride quality. When shock absorbers fail, they often show signs of leakage, indicating that the gas or hydraulic seals are compromised. To check if your vehicle requires new shocks, simply push down on each corner of the car; if it bounces more than twice, it’s time for a replacement. Typically, shock absorbers last around 100,000 miles, but many can exceed this lifespan with proper care.
