Are you sure it's a D3 - because D3's don't have ACE.


@ Benneboy - if you look here you will see rear shocks for with and without ACE vehicles:

Quite surprised by that, must be damping rate difference, there's no physical mounting difference.

Also odd considering not all manufacturers offer a distinction. Can only think that the ACE specific ones have less damping so as not to work against the ACE function. In which case I'd avoid them and go for non ACE versions with ACE being disconnected.

My ace is inactive but new shocked are needed the ace shocks I seen have a flange mount and the none ace a bolt hole so can I put none ace instead

Then you scroll down to the bottom of Paddocks page to the Bilsteins and Konis to find that there is no distinction at all.

Very odd as these are supposed to be the premium brands.
