Shock Absorber BMW E39 5 Series Std Suspension Rear is designed to support the rear bonnet function on BMW E39 5 Series models. This part specifically serves as a bonnet shock absorber, helping to control the motion of the bonnet when it is opened or closed, ensuring smooth and controlled lifting or lowering. Positioned at the rear, it is crucial to compare this component against your existing rear bonnet shock absorber for compatibility.

As a bonnet shock, this unit cushions movement, preventing sudden drops or uncontrolled closure, which can protect both the vehicle and the operator. When sourcing a replacement, ensure that you check the part’s position and its designated use as a bonnet shock absorber rather than a suspension shock, as the terminology might differ.

This BMW-branded part fits within the category of bonnet shocks and carries SKU BB-379935 for identification. It is important to confirm that your vehicle requires a rear bonnet shock absorber with the same specifications as listed here. If uncertain, it is advisable to consult the sales desk or request specialist advice before purchase.

  • Part Type: Bonnet shock absorber
  • Position: Rear
  • Vehicle Compatibility: BMW E39 5 Series
  • SKU: BB-379935

If this repair may need matching clips, brackets, lights, panels or more than one part, check Renault Kwid RHS Front Shock Right, Quick Repair Bundle or Request a Part before ordering.
