Automann Air Bags ???

October 14, 2022, 01:01:57 pm

Hello fellow FT'ers! I'm about to do all new Koni's and airbags on my 2001 320 with IFS. The Goodyears are not available, nor the Conti too, but the Automann brand is available. I've never heard anything about them and was hoping to get some reviews from the group. Thanks!

Are they the same bags with IFS? I know of two forum members that each bought 8 new contis in the last couple weeks.

No, the IFS have only 2 Koni shocks and two airbags for the front and they are different from the rears. (those with an I- beam/kingpin have 4 shocks and four bags)
I just have never heard of Automann brand.

James, Find It Parts has the Contis in stock.

Also, do a little search, they always have a 10% Discount Code available.
I just did all 8 bags a few weeks ago.  They show in stock and delivery by 10/20.

James, sorry for the bum lead, I wasn't paying close enough attention. Looks like you need a different bag. In looking though, they do show many different bags in stock.
