Quinton Hazell Front Shock Absorber

Description

Quinton Hazell QAG177164 shock absorber Mercedes is a premium OEM-compatible suspension component engineered for Mercedes-Benz E-Class W203 models (2002–2009), including E200, E220, E230, and E350 variants. Featuring nitrogen gas-charged damping technology, this shock absorber delivers precise vibration control and consistent performance under heavy loads. Its triple-layer zinc coating provides superior corrosion resistance against road salt and humidity, while the 22mm hardened piston rod ensures durability on Africa’s challenging roads. Directly replacing OE parts (A2033201800, A2033201900), it restores factory ride quality, reduces tire wear, and eliminates “floating” sensations at highway speeds. Rigorously tested for 80,000 km, it’s compatible with both petrol and diesel engines (M271, OM646).
