Sachs Air Suspension

Sachs Air Suspension components for Porsche combine the brand’s long-standing OE expertise with modern damper technology tailored to comfort and control. Sachs parts are developed to work in harmony with Porsche chassis systems, including PASM-equipped models, so your car can retain the composed, refined character it left the factory with.

At Design911, we focus on Sachs Air Suspension solutions that are engineered specifically for Porsche models, giving you a high-quality replacement option when original equipment is worn, leaking or no longer delivering the ride quality you expect.

Within the wider Porsche Suspension & Axle range, Sachs Air Suspension components sit alongside other key items such as conventional dampers, springs and control arms. You can browse related sections like Shock Absorbers FRONT and general Suspension & Axle parts to complete a coherent suspension refresh using compatible components.

Why do Sachs Air Suspension components matter?

Sachs, as part of ZF, is closely involved in the development and supply of original equipment suspension for many European manufacturers. That background is reflected in the way its air-suspension-compatible dampers and related parts are tuned: they are designed to support consistent ride height control, stable handling and a comfortable, composed feel in everyday driving. When these components age, leaks, sagging or instability can appear, and the car may no longer ride as smoothly or respond as cleanly as intended.

• Help restore the balanced, refined ride that Porsche models with air suspension are known for
• Support reliable height control when combined with healthy bags, lines and valves
• Offer an OE-style solution from a brand with deep ZF engineering heritage
• Contribute to long-term comfort, stability and enjoyment of your Porsche

Individual replacement parts Specific Sachs Air Suspension components, such as individual dampers or air struts, allow you to address a particular corner or issue without changing every part in the system at once.

• Ideal for targeted repairs when a single unit is leaking or weak
• Lets you replace only what is needed at the time
• Can be combined with existing healthy components elsewhere on the car

Matched sets or pairs Sachs components are often fitted in axle pairs to keep behaviour consistent from side to side, which is especially important on sophisticated Porsche chassis with air spring and PASM control.

• Balanced damping and response across an axle
• Helps avoid uneven wear or differing feel between left and right
• A sensible approach during planned suspension maintenance

Complete kits In some applications, Sachs offers grouped solutions that bring together all required parts for a more comprehensive service, reflecting ZF’s wider philosophy of supplying well-matched, installation-friendly kits.

• Convenient way to obtain the main components in a single package
• Reduces research time when planning a suspension refresh
• Suited to more thorough restoration or upgrade work on your Porsche

When should you review or replace your Porsche Sachs air suspension components?

Checking Sachs Air Suspension parts periodically helps you identify wear or age-related deterioration before it leads to persistent warning messages or a noticeably compromised ride. On Porsche models with air suspension, issues can develop gradually, so it is worth investigating if the car no longer sits level or feels as settled as it once did.

• You notice sagging or uneven ride height, especially after parking
• There are knocking noises, instability or a “floaty” feel over bumps
• The compressor runs frequently, or fault codes related to level control are stored
• Visible leaks or damage are found on struts, bags or associated hardware

If any of these apply, it is a good time to review your air suspension and replace any Sachs components that are past their best so your Porsche remains comfortable and reassuring to drive.
