It replaces the standard dampers and springs with Bilstein DampTronic dampers and matched Eibach lowering springs, lowering the car while keeping the electronic damper control working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dampers connect to the car's existing wiring, so the factory system carries on adjusting them as you drive.

Where the car has front struts, they must be dismantled with spring compressors to swap the springs. Check the top mounts, bearings and bump stops while everything is apart and replace any that are worn. Make sure every connector is clipped in fully before the first drive, then let the springs settle and have a four-wheel alignment carried out. We recommend professional fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUpgrade Further\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBilstein also makes other suspension options for this car: Bilstein B16 PSS10 for the BMW M3 E92 06-13, Bilstein B16 DampTronic for the BMW M3 E92 06-13.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I check this fits my BMW M3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit is for the BMW M3 E90 E92 (2007-2013). Check the details in the Fitment section, and if you're unsure, send us your registration or VIN and we'll confirm before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much lower will my car sit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLowering approx 25mm front \/ 15mm rear, according to Bilstein's data for this part. The exact figure depends on your car's engine and equipment, and the springs settle slightly over the first few hundred miles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the ride height adjustable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The B12 gives a fixed drop set by the springs. If you want to set the height yourself, look at Bilstein's B14 or B16 coilovers for your car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill my car's adaptive damping still work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. This kit connects to the car's own electronic damper control, so the system keeps adjusting the dampers as before. It is only for cars that came with electronic damping from the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a wheel alignment after fitting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Changing the ride height changes the suspension geometry, so a four-wheel alignment is needed after fitting. Let the springs settle for a few hundred miles first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it road legal in the UK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this kit is designed for road use. As with any suspension modification, you should tell your insurer once it has been fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat type of dampers does it use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonotube gas-pressure, according to Bilstein's data for this part number. Gas-pressure dampers resist fading when they get hot during hard driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there a warranty?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Bilstein suspension is covered against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact us with your order number if you have any problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need new top mounts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are not included. If your existing top mounts, bearings or bump stops are worn, replace them while the suspension is apart, as worn mounts can cause knocks and affect the alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bilstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58918526615935,"sku":"46-337528","price":2618.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/6251\/6693\/files\/bilstein-b12_42dfd226-be3e-4c22-8c60-a569119d1720.jpg?v=1792760021","url":"https:\/\/coilovers.co.uk\/products\/bilstein-b12-damptronic-coilovers-bmw-m3-e90-e92-07-13","provider":"Coilovers.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
