Product Details

KYB Excel-G is part of KYB’s OE-focused product line, built on the same assembly lines and with the same quality components used for original equipment supply. This strut is calibrated to return the suspension to its intended performance rather than alter ride characteristics. Part number 3358001 is engineered for the front right position on 2013-2015 BMW X1 RWD models and is a direct replacement for BMW OE numbers 31316851334 and 31316851338. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping after strut wear
• Loose steering feel or delayed lane-change response
• Uneven tire contact caused by weakened suspension control
• Body roll and instability during braking or cornering
• Noise and vibration associated with a worn front strut assembly

Installation Notes

Fits 2013-2015 BMW X1, front right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends installing new shock mounts, part number SM5767, to help reduce noise and vibration. Verify upper mount thread size 12X1.50 and confirm all suspension components are in serviceable condition before installation.
