Product Details

KYB Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines used for original equipment supply and is calibrated to restore factory-designed suspension behavior rather than alter it. For BMW owners looking for a front left suspension strut that matches the vehicle’s original control characteristics, part number 3348026 delivers a practical OE replacement solution. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72314 and 72756 for the same application.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive bounce or poor ride control
• Reduced steering response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
• Body movement and instability over bumps
• Suspension performance loss that can affect electronic safety systems
