Performance

B6 is the uprated damper for a car kept at standard ride height. Bilstein firms up the valving over the OE curve, so body roll settles sooner, the nose dives less under braking and the car tracks straighter at speed. You feel more of the road surface than with B4, which is the point — it is a handling upgrade, not a comfort one, and it needs no springs to work. This unit is an upside-down monotube: the larger-diameter body is at the top, reducing unsprung weight and stiffening the strut against bending loads.

Fitment

Fits Volvo S80 II (124), 03/2006–12/2016, FWD and Volvo V70 III (135), 04/2007–04/2016, FWD — see the full list below. Verify fitment using the vehicle compatibility checker above. OEM References: 31200246, 31200248, 31212218, 31212220, 31262420.

What's Included

One Bilstein B6 damper unit for the front left — a single shock absorber, not a pair and not an axle set. Order two to do an axle, four for the whole car. Mounting is top pin. Bump stops, dust covers, top mounts and fixings are not included.

Warranty

Backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Cover assumes correct installation, the correct tightening torques, and serviceable bump stops and dust covers. A damper run without its protection parts will be scored by road grit — that is wear, not a defect.
