Most likely a superseded part number, but I'd have to guess non sport from the lack of sport identification on the label. You have EFC32P where the S226A would be. (if my memory is acting right
 )

I did find that part#31316750359(also known as 31336570359) has been replaced by 31316764601 and this maybe why you cannot find it on Realoem! According to this you have Sports suspension Front Spring strut/Carrier/Wheel bearing BMW X5 E53, X5 4.4i (M62)

cool guys thanks Does Sach's make any aftermarket replacements for the sport struts? bavauto doesn't specify if they're sport or non-sport. From what I've found on here, the Bilstein HD's are pretty unforgiving especially considering that my X is lowered. I can't stand how harsh my ride has gotten.

I think I wil be going back to my stock struts that came with my X. The bilstein's I have are just way to harsh. I would prefer softer front end now.

I know Sach's makes aftermarket struts, but I can't find which ones they replace. They just say w/ rear self-level. From my findings on here, you can apparently have rear self level non-sport suspension. I was always under the impression that rear self level meant that you had sport suspension. I'm looking for a sport strut replacement that doesn't require a mortgage to purchase. I can't beleive how much one strut costs for a truck thats almost a decade old. I just bought all 4 struts for my step-dads Dakota for $150. Thats half the price of just one for the X

I will ask my vendor if they also do the rear struts for self-levelling suspension and will post back.
