The Genuine Maserati Front Shock Absorber Single Damping 248216 provides the exact single-rate damping curve Maserati engineers specified for the front axle.
This is a genuine Maserati OEM front damper with a fixed valve design. Its compression and rebound characteristics are calibrated for the specific front spring rate, axle load, and suspension geometry of your model. Unlike adaptive shocks, it delivers a consistent, predictable response under all conditions.
At the front axle, the shock controls corner entry, nose dive under braking, and tyre contact over surface imperfections. A worn damper reduces front-end stability, increases understeer, and extends braking distances.
This OEM shock restores the designed handling balance, keeping steering feedback, ride control, and braking performance exactly as Maserati intended.
Brand: Genuine Maserati OEM
Part Number: 248216
Type: Front Shock Absorber (Single Damping Rate)
Condition: Brand new, genuine OEM
Genuine OEM Quality
This is a real Maserati front shock absorber. The fixed valve calibration matches the front suspension spring rate and geometry of the GranTurismo, GranCabrio, and Quattroporte exactly.
Perfect Fit
Mounting dimensions and stroke length match your Maserati's front strut or wishbone pick-up points. Correct compressed and extended lengths maintain original front suspension travel throughout service life.
Clean Cabin Air
A well-damped front end keeps the bonnet correctly positioned at speed and maintains correct aerodynamic sealing at the windshield base. This limits road debris and pressure-driven air from entering the cabin fresh air intake paths at the front bulkhead.
Full Climate Efficiency
OEM oil and shaft seal specifications maintain consistent damping behaviour in UAE ambient heat and cold morning starts. Damping character does not change as the oil warms up during a drive.
Fast Delivery
EuropeanAutoSpare ships this genuine Maserati damper fast to the UAE and worldwide with front suspension type and model confirmation before dispatch.
EuropeanAutoSpare uses your VIN to confirm part number 248216 is the correct front damper for your Maserati model and front suspension configuration. Models with adaptive damping use different part numbers.
A genuine Maserati Front Shock Absorber 248216 brings your front suspension back to the single damping specification Maserati developed for these models. Replace worn front dampers in pairs and restore the front-end precision your Maserati delivers when everything is in correct working order.
| Maserati Model / Generation | Application Details (Passive / Non-Skyhook Only) | Year Range |
|---|---|---|
| Maserati GranTurismo (M145) | 4.2L V8 Base Models (Standard Baseline Mechanical Suspension) | 2008–2012 |
| Maserati Quattroporte V (M139) | 4.2L V8 Base / Executive GT (Comfort-Tuned Mechanical Suspension) | 2007–2012 |
Yes, this is a genuine Maserati OEM front shock absorber (Part No. 248216). It is engineered strictly to factory valving profiles, delivering the exact baseline compression and rebound settings required to maintain original driving characteristics.
Single damping features a fixed, mechanically calibrated internal valve rate optimized to provide a uniform balance of ride comfort and handling stability across all conditions. In contrast, adaptive damping systems utilize electronic actuators to dynamically stiffen or soften the shock absorber in real time based on sensor feedback and ECU control profiles.
Yes, front dampers should always be replaced in axle pairs without exception. Running an un-matched, worn strut alongside a fresh damper across the steering axle creates asymmetric front damping. This imbalance results in uneven braking pull, unstable front weight transfer, and highly inconsistent corner entry balance.
Yes, absolutely. Dismantling front suspension struts directly alters critical tracking metrics such as camber and toe variables. A professional, precision wheel alignment must be performed immediately post-installation to confirm all geometry layout values match Maserati's factory tracking specifications and to protect tires from rapid wear.
Yes, European Auto Spares provides fast, fully-tracked express shipping straight to the UAE and worldwide. We pack all gas-pressurized structural struts in heavy-duty, reinforced boxing with extensive inner padding to isolate the precision valving, seals, and mounting flanges from transit shocks.
