w207 Shocks Woes

Hello Brudders

I'm having loads of trouble with my coupe ( w207 ) shocks. I have changed the shock absorbers frigging 3 times at TWM over 6 - 8 months. I heard it's a defective design but the newly designed shocks are not available yet.

I'm thinking just change to a coil over or some other good shocks that gives comfortable ride, really getting sick of driving abouts in a bumpy car. Any suggestions or lobang?

Yr ride is C207 for a coupe. Yr bumpy ride is when u go over a hump or throughout the ride? Is it kinda too soft feel?

The ride is bumpy and hard throughout the ride, a lot of sounds at the front undercarriage over uneven roads. The garage confirmed it's again the shocks giving the trouble.

Try KWs. They are known to be compliant and comfy in terms of ride quality.

U hv changed 3 times & the problems still persists!! If u can come to this Friday meetup or our monthly gtg give me a short ride. This is really bad but I m not too sure whether is the aborsber issue. Even you change to a coil over will resolve yr problem or not? But if this is only the solution then get a good set of coil over. Good luck!!
