Hi guys
I have a 9-5 2006 that I keep in top condition. My problem is that the shock absorbers are very hard and the car looses it's "limousine" feeling that the older 9-5 had before GM messed everything up 🤬
I had a 9-5 1998 and the shocks where much softer. Unfortunately they don't fit the Dame Edna models.
Is there any third party shock absorbers fitting my car that will give me that limo feeling back?
Unlikely you would enjoy Bilstein B6 s. Fair chance even the much less aggressive B4 versions would give you the exact ride /feel you are asking about.
Konis might ....as they are Adjustable. But also not free and therefore a buy with some risk.
Could always try some Monroes or other 3rd tier shocks Certainly Much cheaper
.
Yeah the 9-5 does not have a "limousine" ride even when new. They used a more sportier shock. The best thing you can do is get some taller tires on smaller rims like a 16".
Personally GM did nothing wrong with the 9-5. I have loved everyone I have owned.
