Mercedes-Benz M-Class, GLE, GL & GLS – Rear Shock Absorber Set (x2)
This listing covers a complete rear shock absorber set for Mercedes-Benz W166 and X166 chassis models equipped with Airmatic and the Adaptive Damping System (ADS). Both units replace OEM part number A1663200130.
Compatibility note: Engineered specifically for models equipped with ADS (Adaptive Damping System). Verify your vehicle’s suspension option codes before ordering.
When to Replace
- Excessive bouncing or a loose feeling over dips and bumps
- Harsh, unforgiving ride with degraded handling response
- Clunking or squeaking from the rear suspension over rough surfaces
- Visible hydraulic fluid on the shock body
- Uneven rear tyre wear
Why Replace as a Pair
Both shocks accumulate identical mileage and road load. A blown left shock means the right has endured the same conditions and is equally degraded. Replacing as a matched set ensures even rear damping and prevents the fresh unit from being immediately overworked by a failing counterpart.
