Detailed Description

This suspension shock absorber is specified for BMW X3 and BMW X4 front right fitments listed below, including 2011-2016 BMW X3, 2017 BMW X3, and 2015-2018 BMW X4.

The listed dimensions help confirm the physical profile before ordering, especially on electronically controlled suspension systems.

What It Helps Address

• Front-end bounce or excessive oscillation after bumps
• Uneven ride control at the front right corner
• Fluid leakage from a worn shock absorber
• Noisy or inconsistent damping response on EDC-equipped vehicles
• Restoration of OE-referenced suspension performance on BMW X3 and BMW X4 models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the OE number 37116797026 and confirm the vehicle’s suspension equipment before ordering. This part is listed for the front right position only, so match the side and model year exactly to the fitment data. On BMW X3 and BMW X4 vehicles with Dynamic Damper Control or Electronic Damper Control (EDC), confirm the electronic suspension configuration during diagnosis and replacement.

After installation, inspect related suspension components such as mounts, bushings, and control arms for wear that could affect ride quality or alignment. A professional alignment check is recommended whenever front suspension components are replaced.
