Reviews of Sachs shock absorbers

Eu tenho um Audi A4 B8 SLine, comprei dois amortecedores na Audi originais SACHS foram €180 os dois!!!

It is quite a hassle to change the fronts (the rear shocks however are a joke to change) so I would personally just go with the OEM = Sachs--as I did two months ago--if you can afford it and/or save up for it.

Muitas casas não gostam, aparentemente, porque é chato ganhar dinheiro com o cliente que conhece o suficiente para chegar lá com pastilhas ATE, discos Zimmermann Coat Z, casquilhos e braços SKF, amortecedores e kits de embraiagem Sachs e por aí adiante

Ive got sachs m-sport shocks with eibach pro kit front springs and h&r rear springs. To me it sits perfect.

I had the Seat Toledo, a rebadged Skoda Rapid basically. I changed the OEM shocks to aftermarket. The owner of the shop told me that VAG group uses Sachs, so i fitted Sachs. I hated it. The ride became a lot firmer, uncomfortable and annoying. However handing improved and the car felt more planted on the road. Asked the guy about it and told me that aftermarket shocks are generally firmer than OEM even if they come from the same company. Depends on what you prioritise. Comfort or handling.

Just changed my rear ones with the Sachs M-Sport. I love the right height and any lower is a problem where I live.

cuando compré mi 330i tenía el amortiguador trasero del lado del conductor cagado. Más allá de que acá te matan con el precio de cazoletas y amortiguadores (hablamos de OE, o sea Sachs, etc.) no se consiguen los guardapolvos ni los topes superiores.

For me Sachs is the way to go for original quality and driving dynamics. I have Sachs on all 4 corners on both my W124s and they are great.

BUT op if I were you, I'd replace just the shocks (keep the Sachs springs) and replace with OE Sachs shocks (struts) Bilstien also makes yellows with OE ride height i believe, that would be the best street ride quality.

I've had a number of BMWs and VWs with Sachs shocks leak after 40-50k miles. It's not like they totally fail and collapse, they just start having much slower rebound and faster compression.
