OE Match Air Suspension
The OE Match front air suspension strut pair (left + right) is a complete replacement front-axle suspension solution for the Panamera 970.1 models equipped with factory air suspension. This set includes:
1x 97034305123 - OE Match Front left air suspension strut
1x 97034305223 - OE Match Front right air suspension strut
Fits:
Cars with Air Suspension
Porsche 970.1 Panamera 2010 - 2013
With direct-fit air springs and dampers built to original specification, this pair restores factory ride height, delivers smooth, controlled comfort and brings back dynamic handling - giving your 970 the ride quality it deserves.
Air suspension struts degrade over time: air-spring bladders can leak, internal seals and dampers wear, or valves malfunction. Common symptoms include sagging front end, uneven ride height, harsh or bouncy ride, poor handling, and warning lights on air-suspension control systems. Replacing both front struts at once - rather than just one - ensures symmetric suspension behavior, eliminates front-end lean, preserves alignment, and restores consistent performance across both wheels. This is especially important after high-mileage use, when replacing only one strut may lead to mismatched spring/damper rates.
When to replace:
• Front suspension rides low or uneven
• Noticeable sagging, bounce, or loss of ride comfort
• Air-suspension warnings, leaks or loss of pressure
• After compressor or valve block service, or when restoring suspension to original spec

The complete package - front struts and rear air springs/dampers - rebuilds the backbone of your ride comfort, steering precision and chassis balance. Whether you’re fixing sagging suspension or restoring wear-heavy struts, this set ensures a smooth, controlled driving experience from bumper to bumper.
Many Panamera 970s suffer from progressive wear or failure in air struts - leading to sagging ride height, rough ride, poor damping, uneven handling, tyre wear, and compromised safety. Replacing front or rear struts in isolation can restore partial function, but only a full set ensures symmetrical suspension behaviour and balanced dynamics.
Benefits of full set replacement:
• Balanced ride height front and rear - no lean or sag under load
• Uniform damping and suspension response for consistent comfort and control
• Protection of suspension geometry - reducing tyre wear and stress on control arms, bushings, and linkage
• Peace of mind — new seals, springs, and dampers across all four corners eliminate guesswork and prolong suspension longevity
Ideal times to replace:
• When ride height sags or sits unevenly
• Audible air leaks, rattles or rough ride due to worn struts
• After air-spring failure or leaking rear strut(s)
• Comprehensive suspension overhaul or high-mileage maintenance

• Function: Air-spring provides adjustable ride height and load levelling; hydraulic damper controls suspension travel and rebound, ensuring smooth ride, stable handling and comfort under various load/road conditions.
• Applications: Suitable when original front air strut shows signs of failure — leaks, sagging, uneven ride height, harsh ride, warning lights - or during suspension overhaul and maintenance.
Air-suspension struts bear the full load of the vehicle’s front axle and endure constant load cycles, temperature changes and road shock. Over time the air-spring bellows may develop leaks or lose pressure; dampers can weaken, resulting in sagging, rough ride, poor handling, or rear/front axle imbalance. On vehicles like the Panamera 970 - often carrying variable loads - a compromised strut can lead to:
• Uneven ride height or front-end sagging
• Harsh, bouncy or unresponsive ride quality
• Reduced stability under braking or cornering
• Increased wear on suspension components, tyres or bushings
Replacing the front strut ensures you restore proper suspension geometry, ride height, and damping behaviour - which improves comfort, safety and longevity of the suspension system.

Porsche Front Air Suspension Shock Absorbers | Design911 Adaptive Suspension Components for Comfort & Control
Front air suspension shock absorbers are advanced components that combine air springs and dampers into one precision-engineered unit. They deliver variable ride height, superior comfort, and adaptive damping to match your Porsche’s performance demands. By continuously adjusting air pressure and shock resistance, these systems ensure exceptional handling stability, reduced body roll, and a smooth, controlled ride on any surface.
At Design911, we supply a complete range of front air suspension shock absorbers and related components, built to match the engineering standards of high-performance vehicles. Our air dampers are crafted from high-strength materials and advanced sealing technology for long-lasting durability and reliability. Ideal for maintenance, restoration, or performance upgrades, these parts restore your Porsche’s refined comfort, ride quality, and precision handling.
What Do Front Air Suspension Shock Absorbers Do?
Front air suspension shock absorbers replace traditional coil spring and damper systems with air-filled bellows and adaptive damping control.
Core Functions:
• Support vehicle weight and adjust ride height via air pressure.
• Adapt damping force automatically to driving conditions.
• Reduce body roll and vibration for smoother handling.
• Improve comfort, cornering stability, and braking balance.
• Integrate with Porsche’s electronic suspension control systems for dynamic
response.
These systems provide an ideal balance of performance, comfort, and control — delivering the signature Porsche driving experience in every condition.
Why Do Front Air Suspension Shock Absorbers Fail or Degrade?
Air suspension components experience high pressure, constant motion, and environmental exposure — leading to natural wear over time.
Common Causes of Failure Include:
• Air leaks from worn seals, bellows, or connections.
• Compressor or valve block malfunction causing pressure imbalance.
• Damaged shock absorber pistons or leaking hydraulic fluid.
• Electrical or sensor faults within adaptive damping systems.
• Corrosion or debris damaging air lines and fittings.
When these parts fail, symptoms may include uneven ride height, suspension warning lights, rough ride quality, or excessive bouncing — all indicators that inspection or replacement is necessary.
Why Replace or Upgrade Your Porsche Front Air Suspension Shock Absorbers?
Replacing worn or leaking air suspension dampers restores your Porsche’s original comfort, stability, and ride control. Upgraded or remanufactured units offer improved reliability and performance for demanding driving conditions.
Key Benefits:
• Restores correct ride height and suspension function.
• Improves handling precision and ride comfort.
