Help keep your BMW's front end composed and controlled with this SACHS suspension strut, part number 311403, cataloged for the front left position. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2006 BMW 325I and 330I, the 2007-2013 BMW 328I and 335I, the 2009-2011 BMW 335D, and the 2011-2013 BMW 335IS. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
A strut damps spring movement and also serves as a structural part of the suspension. Signs a strut may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, fluid seeping from the strut body, and uneven tire wear. If a worn strut is the cause, this unit replaces it. Diagnose the suspension before ordering, because other components can cause similar symptoms.
For balanced handling, consider replacing both front struts together. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
