Air ride acting up again!
 
Looks like now my front passenger air strut is going out. If I let it sit 2 days then the whole front pas is sitting like a lowrider. Looks kinda cool b/c its low but not cool b/c I know the airstrut needs replacing.

My question is, has anyone used these?

BMW Air Suspension Parts - X5 2000-2006 (3.0, 4.4, 4.8 Liter w/air suspension)

As some of you may already know, I did replace my driverside strut last summer with a BMW OE one and its been trouble free. But at $299, it is way to hard to pass up on trying one of these remanufactured ones. Has anyone used it with success?

TIA

I'm about to order but they don't list PN's so I can't tell which side is which. When they say Right they mean Passenger right?

You got it. :thumbup:

Ok cool. I thought it was the Passenger side also but just wanted to check. $300 with core is damn cheap vs. 700-900 from the stealer!!

called them anyways to confirm and yes, right is pass and left is drivers. suggested that they just list it that way in future for ease of ordering.

Do British folks drive on the driver's side or the left side of the road? Although they may argue that it is the right side! ;)
