Hi there,
The front shocks on my 2019 330e MSport require replacing, but two different garages have informed me that BMW doesn't make aftermarket parts and that they would have to order them from the manufacturer, which would cost over £1700...
Why there aren't any aftermarket parts for 2019 vehicles is perplexing. Can you think of anything?
Will the 2019 330e MSport shocks not include any aftermarket components?

You may get the OEM shock part number by visiting realoem.com and entering the last seven digits of your vehicle identification number. After that, you may begin to compare potential outcomes.
Even though it's been a while, my e92 2010 m-sport is equipped with KYB shocks, which are manufactured in Japan. I can't help but compare them to the OS Sachs on my 2010 M-Sport e93. I have searched for OE Sachs for the 92, but I have not been able to get the precise component number. I have seen several that are comparable, but not identical.
wish you the best of luck.

I appreciate it. I have located the part numbers, but I am now unable to locate them at any part business. I am beginning to worry if there may be an issue with the supply. Will review it again in about a month since it is not an urgent matter.
We need 37106898313 and 37106898314 as a bare minimum.

When it comes to suspension parts, I recommend Autodoc. I was able to get reasonably priced parts for my BMW E92 and my Audi A5.
The delivery time can exceed a week if you're not really pressing the matter.
You can buy SACHS for less than £80 per with a fast Google search. Hey, aren't they meant for your car?

Not your run-of-the-mill "poor man's" dampers, but these ridiculous electronic ones."Oh my!"
Great while the vehicle is still under warranty, but a poor choice for the unfortunate owner a few years down the road.
It seems like a costly excursion to BMW thieves is in order.
For a seven-year-old vehicle, I'd code it and install the normal shock.

Yeah, I believe it's this one, but it's sold out
