Been trying to educate myself on upgrade/replacement of front and rear shocks on our ‘13 Cayenne Diesel. Was looking at the Bilstein B12 kit with Eibach springs. Looking for any input/info for options. We have a trailer hitch but not for towing just the occasional bike rack. Thanks

No one has had to replaced shocks on the their Q-5/7?
The searching around has shown Bilstein has a kit with or without springs. Just was hoping to hear some real world feedback. Thanks

Shocks on the Cayenne are fairly decent. If looking to change to aftermarket, Bilstein, KW and I believe Koni make some nice replacements/coilovers. Too bad Olin is not in the Cayenne game.

Thanks for the reply and advice. I ended up selling it to my BIL and will suggest those options to him.
