The Bilstein B6 DampTronic® Front Shock Absorber is a high-performance OE replacement designed for the Volkswagen Golf Mk7 GTI and Golf Mk7 R (2012–2021) equipped with factory Electronic Damping Control (EDC).

Engineered to integrate seamlessly with the vehicle’s original EDC system, the B6 DampTronic retains full functionality of factory Comfort, Normal, and Sport drive modes, while delivering noticeably improved handling, control, and ride stability compared to standard OEM dampers.

Built using Bilstein’s monotube gas-pressure technology, the B6 DT offers faster response, enhanced road feedback, and superior heat dissipation — making it ideal for both daily driving and spirited performance use. This front damper is designed for vehicles with a 55mm front strut diameter and is valved specifically for standard ride height applications.

Finished with Bilstein’s Triple-C® corrosion-resistant coating, the B6 DampTronic ensures long-term durability and consistent performance in all driving conditions.
