msport absorber replacement

[LiteBulb]

my absorber is kinda wearing off. i am getting ngiok ngiok sound passing humps.my model is a 2001 330ci msport (stock car). as for absorber replacement, any suggestions if i should replaced it with the same msport absorber, or better to go aftermarket? i am into performance absorver, but i am not willing to make the car any lower than the current stock height.

If you're like me, and happy with the stock M-Sport absorbers, try to find the OEM absorbers which is cheaper but does not bear the BMW logo. For my E39 the OEM replacement absorber for the M-Sport II is either Sachs Advantage or Boge Turbo Gas, which is exactly the same product with different names and stickers. Sachs and Boge is the same company and those two absorbers are identical in every way.

I'm not sure what is the OEM absorbers for the E46 M-Sports, you'll need to find out as above is my experience with my E39. If it does turns out to be the Sachs Advantage/Boge Turbo Gas then its quite a task to find it here, you might need to import it in. I bought my set from the UK.

The ones I bought for E39:

I don't mind bumping in for a set of original Sachs e46 M3 shocks...let us know of the charges, thanx mate.

Not really source, I still know some people in UK who's coming back to Malaysia with container load of furnitures and cars...so tumpang the container la.

Eventually all of them will have came back so no more tumpang ler...

Haywire, so can be done ? hopefully they dun mind ? just me and NKOTB ?

I have a friend coming back end of this month, already tumpang my parcel shelf with the electric blind cutout but I can sense he's not happy for me to put in more stuff. He's been there for 13 years so there's a LOT of items he's bringing back.

Sorry not this time round.

What's the indicative price for the Sachs Advantage by the way?

 

[haywire]

A set of 4 in Malaysia is over RM4k I was told, and need to import it in. I got all 4 from UK at RM2650.

i've changed this msport abs last year. Front @ 1.7k, Rear @ 1.0k = RM5.4k (others quoted me @6.3k)
the order took me almost a month to arrive (no sach/boge logo printed, just came with bmw logo)

Why is it black? My original one was silver colour same as the replacement Sachs one.

Have you got any part numbers for that or a closeup to the BMW sticker? I assume this is for E39?

Alongside of the BMW logo should have some writings, some of it will say 'Sachs' or 'Boge' among the part numbers.

my sachs also black color

errr, so where can i place orders for these replacements? or should i just throw koni shocks in? stiffer shocks also i can handle.

i can even consider going for aftermarket suspension setup. just so long as the ride dont get any lower. i dont like to be intimidated by humps =P
