31126762262 BMW Strut

A strut does a couple of key things. It’s basically a structural support for the vehicle’s suspension. It handles both supporting the weight of the car and dampening the movement of the suspension – controlling how much it bounces around. It contains a spring inside that absorbs impacts, and a shock absorber, which controls the spring’s motion. It’s a pretty busy component, really. Think of it like one of the legs of your car. It connects the wheel assembly to the vehicle body. It keeps your tires properly aligned, helps with steering, and most importantly, it keeps the ride comfortable and predictable. It's a vital part of the suspension system, working with other parts like control arms and ball joints. You’ll generally find them on the front or rear of the vehicle – sometimes both. If a strut goes bad, you’ll notice it. You’ll likely get a bouncy ride, it might pull to one side, or your tires could wear unevenly. A bad strut really affects handling and braking – it makes everything less safe and less comfortable. It acts like a shield protecting the rest of the suspension from big impacts. If that shield fails, other parts can get damaged quickly. You can find replacements easily enough these days – places like Fixparts Online have a good selection, and it’s important to get it sorted out if yours are worn or leaking. Ignoring it will just lead to more expensive repairs down the road. We’re here to help: Strut (MPN 31126762262) includes a 12-month warranty!
