Front Shocks for the Mercedes-Benz W246 B-Class

Looking for front shocks for a W246 Mercedes-Benz B-Class (2011–2018)? We carry 3 tested, supplier-direct front shocks matched to this chassis. Common engines on this chassis include the M270, M274, M651. Body styles covered: Coupe, Hatchback.

Every part is bench-checked, visually inspected or boxed-and-sealed before dispatch and ships via Courier Guy or Aramex from our Centurion (Pretoria) yard to all 9 South African provinces — typically 1–3 working days door-to-door. Used parts carry our standard 3-month fitment warranty; refurbished and recon items carry an extended cover documented on your invoice; new aftermarket items ship with the manufacturer warranty.

Confirming fitment on a w246 front shock absorber

B-Class W246 front shocks can vary by year, engine variant, body style, and pre-facelift vs facelift trim. Buyers also search for these as w246 front strut — same physical part, different naming convention; we list both interchangeably so the quote reflects what's actually in stock. If you can share your VIN or a clear photo of the original part, we'll confirm the exact match before you pay — that's the fastest way to avoid a wrong-fit return. Don't have the VIN handy? The year, model variant (e.g. C200, C220 CDI, C63 AMG), and a description of the part is usually enough.
