Diagram Ref No 1

This strut absorbs bumps and road imperfections, damping compression and rebound to deliver a smooth, controlled ride. It manages the suspension’s dynamic response - helping the car remain stable under acceleration, braking, and cornering. By replacing worn or fatigued struts with a genuine unit, you restore original ride comfort, steering precision, and suspension performance.

You should consider replacing the strut if:
• The existing strut shows leaking, loss of damping, or reduced ride quality.
• The car exhibits poor handling, excessive bounce, instability over bumps or during dynamic driving.
• You are performing suspension maintenance or overhaul, or replacing worn suspension components.
• You want to retain factory-standard suspension performance and safety margins by using OEM-spec parts.

This strut absorbs and dampens road shocks, bumps and irregularities to deliver a controlled, stable ride. It manages both compression and rebound forces, ensuring the suspension remains responsive yet composed. Under cornering, braking, or acceleration, it helps keep the wheels planted, maintains handling precision, and supports the dynamic behaviour intended for the Sport Suspension setup. By replacing worn or fatigued dampers with a new genuine unit, you restore front-end stability, ride comfort, and the sharp, predictable steering response characteristic of a properly set-up 982 with M030.

Using a genuine Porsche strut ensures that damping and suspension geometry remain as the manufacturer intended - critical for the M030 Sport Suspension, which is engineered to deliver a sharply balanced, sporty ride and handling. A factory strut maintains ride comfort, handling precision, and long-term reliability.

You should consider replacing the strut if:
• The old strut shows leaking fluid, reduced damping, or visible wear.
• The car exhibits poor handling, harsh ride, nose-dive under braking, or instability over bumps.
• You’re performing suspension maintenance or upgrades, or wish to restore OEM-spec ride and handling.
• You want to maintain original handling dynamics and resale value by keeping genuine Porsche components.
