Air suspension front struts

Post by svvg » Fri May 25, 2018 4:30 pm

Just wanted to check - is the front strut/air bag assembly an integrated unit? i.e. if I wanted to replace the strut I'd have to replace the airbag with it, as it doesn't separate??

What non-bmw brand do people tend to go for? My air bags are fine - but I think the struts are gone...

And is there a separate top mount (doesn't look to be the case from Real OEM...)?

Many thanks!
