E82 KW V2 suspension for sale. I bought it from another forum member but never used it, all I did was clean it up.

Front Driver side strut is blown and it doesn't hold oil. The seal at the top is clearly damaged and will require a replacement from KW.

I'm trying this post as is right now, if no takers in a week. I'll get the replacement strut and adjust price accordingly.

I had to tweak the image a bit to make it brighter as it was taken in a relatively dark garage.


Local pickup, I'll take 100 off as there won't be shipping.

Nah, they came from a different forum member. I'd like to see $700 shipped in the US.

I haven't ordered the replacement front driver side strut yet from KW, so that'd be on the buyer to do.

How much does KW charge/strut?

I just contacted them for a quote for replacement or repair. The outer body of the strut is still in good condition, but the seal to the piston rod is messed up and all the oil flowed out. If it's as simple as a seal, then it could be cheap. If there's a larger underlying issue, then more expensive. I'll get KW's feedback then post again.

Rebuild cost is $160/damper, but if they deem the rod is damaged that's an extra $95. 10-15 day lead time.

Are these still for sale? Did you get them fixed or does it still need to be repaired? I may be interested but I'm not looking to send them in to get them fixed myself.
