Arnott AS-2893 Front Left Air Strut
Arnott AS-2893 is a new aftermarket air suspension strut for the front left side of select Bentley and Volkswagen applications. It replaces the OE air strut with a new assembly built for a comfortable, responsive ride and direct fitment on the Bentley Continental GT, Bentley Flying Spur, and Volkswagen Phaeton.
Key Features
- New, not remanufactured, air suspension strut
- Custom-tuned hydraulic shock absorber with progressive spring rate
- Elongated piston design for ride quality without the OE reservoir
- Heavy-duty ContiTech air bladder protected by an aluminum can
- CNC-machined top mount made from aircraft-quality aluminum
- Includes dust boot, air fitting, connector valve, seals, O-rings, bump stop, and heavy-duty crimping rings
- Air adjustable and gas charged construction
- Designed and assembled in the USA
Product Details
The Arnott NEW line focuses on engineered replacement suspension components built to restore factory-style air ride performance with updated materials and construction. AS-2893 follows that approach with a new air spring assembly, a hydraulic internal damper, and a progressive spring rate for controlled front-end response. It is a direct replacement for OE front left air struts used on 2003-2018 Bentley Continental, 2013 Bentley Flying Spur, and 2004-2006 Volkswagen Phaeton applications. This part number, AS-2893, also cross-references OE-style replacement numbers used in these vehicles.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Front corner sag from a leaking air bladder or worn air spring
- Harsh, uneven, or inconsistent ride height at the front left corner
- Noisy or unstable suspension behavior caused by aging OE strut components
- Loss of air pressure from cracked seals, fittings, or bladder wear
- Reduced ride control from a fatigued shock absorber
Installation Notes
Fits 2003-2018 Bentley Continental, front left; 2013 Bentley Flying Spur, front left; and 2004-2006 Volkswagen Phaeton, front left. Verify OE part number, chassis configuration, and air suspension layout before installation. The assembly uses a stud upper mount and clevis lower mount, with mounting hardware included as listed in the product data. Follow factory service procedures for depressurizing the air suspension system and checking ride height calibration after installation.
Quality Assurance
Arnott designs and assembles this air strut in the USA using a ContiTech air bladder, CNC-machined aluminum components, and long-life seals and O-rings for consistent suspension service.
