Description

Sachs Shock Absorber 316298 – For Mercedes-Benz Vehicles

Manufacturer Part Number: 316 298

Description

The SACHS Shock Absorber is expertly engineered to restore your vehicle’s original handling dynamics while meeting the highest standards of safety, comfort, performance, and quality. SACHS products are recognized for their exceptional dampening characteristics, featuring application-tuned valves that combine longevity with superior comfort and control, ensuring a smooth ride in any road condition.

As a critical component of your vehicle’s suspension system, the shock absorber plays an essential role in managing the bouncing motion of coil springs. A reliable shock absorber will enhance vehicle handling and ride quality. If you notice signs of leakage or excessive bouncing after pushing down on the corners of your vehicle, it may be time to replace your shocks. Typically, shock absorbers can last around 100,000 miles, but many can exceed this lifespan with proper care.
