Catégorie: Amortisseurs et suspension Mazda 3

The Mazda 3 has been produced across four generations: BK (2003–2009), BL (2009–2013), BM/BN (2013–2019), and BP (2019–present). The hatchback and saloon (Mazda3 Sedan) share front struts but can use different rear shock lengths within the same generation. Confirm your generation from the two-letter chassis prefix at positions four and five of your VIN, or from the build year on the door pillar sticker.

How to choose

The Bilstein B4 suits a high-mileage BL or BM used as a daily car — returning the Mazda 3's characteristically sharp, lightweight feel. The B6 suits the driver who wants the sporty BM or BN to feel even more connected. Tein lowering springs are popular for stance and mild handling improvement on the BK through BN.
