Bilstein 24-195409 Suspension Shock Absorber - Rear Left

Bilstein B6 Rear Left Shock Absorber

The Bilstein B6 Performance shock absorber, part number 24-195409, is a rear left suspension upgrade for select Mini models using the factory spring. It uses a monotube internal design and application-specific valve settings to improve handling response, stability, and control without changing the OE spring setup.

Built for 2011-2016 Mini Cooper Countryman and 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Paceman rear left applications, this Bilstein shock absorber is engineered to meet or exceed OE standards through rigorous testing and consistent damping performance.

Performance Details

The B6 Performance line is built as an OE damper upgrade for drivers who want firmer control while retaining the factory spring. On Mini Cooper Countryman and Mini Cooper Paceman rear left suspension setups, the monotube construction helps maintain damping consistency under repeated load changes, while the tuned valving supports improved handling and safety. This part number 24-195409 is a direct-fit style replacement for the listed rear left applications and reflects Bilstein’s focus on precise suspension control.

This part cross-references Bilstein 19-213729 for the same application.

Common Issues It Can Address

• Excessive bounce or oscillation from a worn rear shock absorber
• Reduced rear-end stability during cornering or lane changes
• Uneven damping response from aging OE suspension components
• Loss of control over rough pavement or expansion joints
• Rear suspension harshness caused by degraded shock performance

Installation Notes

Fits 2011-2016 Mini Cooper Countryman, rear left. Fits 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Paceman, rear left. Verify the upper stem mount and lower eye 15.5mm mount before installation, and confirm the vehicle uses the factory spring arrangement. Part number 24-195409 should be matched to the listed rear left position only.
