‘The right decision’

Reinforced shock absorbers for | |

Now feels closer to a car than a van to drive

“I upgraded my 2024 Hymer MLt 580 in two stages so I could assess the benefit of the individual changes. Three months and 3,000 kilometres ago, I had Marquart Rear Dampers installed.From the very first mile you could really feel the difference. Roundabouts were much smoother, with hardly any body roll. The low-speed sway that the Mercedes Sprinter usually suffers from was almost gone.

After driving for a few weeks, I felt that the original Mercedes front dampers weren’t quite working in sync with the Marquart rear dampers. I ordered and installed a pair of Marquart front dampers. A 200km test drive along some of the UK’s finest twisty B roads showed that upgrading all four dampers was the right decision.

The 2024 Hymer MLt comes with a third rear leaf spring as standard, and when you add the Marquart Dampers front and rear, the handling is completely transformed. I would definitely recommend this upgrade.“

‘Absolutely stable’

Reinforced shock absorbers for | |

‘After driving our Idefix for 5,000 kilometres, I can say with conviction: “This car is perfect”. The car is absolutely stable in normal driving conditions. Whether going up or down hills, around bends or in windy conditions. I’m always amazed at how it still pulls through on the mountain with its 3.5 tonnes. You can drive in a relaxed manner. The overall package of reinforced springs, shock absorbers and air suspension harmonises perfectly. Although I’ve only driven it on the road so far, I’m confident it can handle a lot off-road too. With that in mind, stay healthy, everyone.‘

Marquart shock absorbers were installed in our IVECO 70 Bimobil EX412 at the newly opened Marquart workshop in Löningen. The initial telephone consultation was very informative, and we had to fill out a questionnaire with various vehicle details. Mr Neumann provided detailed advice on site. The correct damper settings were found based on the vehicle weight and intended use. The installation was carried out very professionally and quickly. In addition, which was also very important to us, the torsion bar springs were adjusted correctly.

After a test drive, it was agreed that the dampers could be switched to a different damping level even after a longer journey. Mr Neumann’s advice was very comprehensive and helpful. The dampers were also installed very conscientiously and thoroughly.

We have now driven approximately 5,000 km on and off-road with our Marquart shock absorbers and are very satisfied with them. In our opinion, IVECOs should be equipped with Marquart shock absorbers when they are purchased new. The handling with Marquart shock absorbers and the adjustment of the torsion bar springs has improved enormously. Many thanks to Mr Neumann and the Marquart team.

‘Last week, Marquart, a company based in Löningen, installed a dual-circuit auxiliary air suspension system in my Hymer Womo Type B-MC T 680. The air suspension system, as well as the professional and high-quality installation with preparation for MOT approval, including the current driving comfort, was and is outstanding. Mr Neumann and his team were simply fantastic! Thank you.‘

‘Top service. The motorhome drives completely differently – like it’s on rails. The staff deserve 10 stars. The price/performance ratio is unrivalled these days. Highly recommended.’
Holger V. from Rastede

‘The chassis is now top notch.’

‘Very friendly, excellent and competent service. In our new motorhome, we used to get seasick before the shock absorbers were replaced because it rocked so much. After our visit to Marquart, driving the motorhome is fun again! The chassis is now in top condition, even when towing a trailer. My recommendation: 5 stars.’
Dietmar K. from Wachtendonk

‘The new driving experience is incredibly good.’

‘Much more stable and less susceptible to wind‘

‘Just a courtesy email to let you know that we have fitted the new dampers and are really happy with the change in the vehicle. We are currently driving on UK motorways, windy day, uneven road and the motorhome is much more stable and less wind-affected. It recovers much quicker from the larger bumps in the road. Many thanks for your advice Kind regards‘

‘Absolutely fantastic‘

‘Hello Marquart Team, I would like to give you my feedback now that the rear shock absorbers and front suspension struts have been fitted to my 906 4×4 Sprinter.

I was already familiar with the quality of your dampers, as I had replaced the rear standard dampers with your dampers 60,000 kilometres ago. The bouncing over thresholds disappeared immediately, and the vehicle felt much more stable overall. Now the front suspension struts have also been replaced, and at the same time the rear dampers again, because we have spent many thousands of kilometres on wonderful off-road tracks.

And the result after a few hundred kilometres? Absolutely fantastic. Finally, finally, the front axle is working as it should. No diving or swaying in circles, no pumping in tight corners (the standard shock absorber dived, then pushed back, then dived again, etc.) with that spongy feeling of instability.

And today? Firstly, it dips much less, and then it remains stable in its position until you exit the bend or roundabout. Honestly, I feel like I’m driving a completely different vehicle.

In addition, even short, hard impacts are now absorbed much better than before. This is particularly noticeable on the front axle. Finally, shocks are really cushioned. The front axle no longer ‘falls’ into the depression and no longer ‘hits’ the elevation, but works absolutely smoothly and sensitively.

In my opinion, this is a goal that is not easily achievable with a heavy 4×4 Sprinter rolling on hard 245 BF Goodrich tyres with the hard sidewalls typical of these tyres, and a third leaf spring that also stiffens the rear. The comparison is certainly not entirely accurate, but the behaviour is now similar to that of a passenger car.

Conclusion: I am completely satisfied with the conversion to Marquart dampers. Many thanks to your company and the team.‘

Absolutely fantastic – Marquart shock absorbers

‘That’s really impressive.’

I contacted them a few days ago when we were driving south from Scandinavia. They called me back quickly in my language, which I really appreciated. Marquart is conveniently located in Germany on the way back between the Netherlands and Denmark, so I suggested stopping by to discuss the problems I was having with my Fuso Camper 6.5T.

When I arrived at the workshop on Monday afternoon, I was greeted in French by an employee who introduced me to the workshop manager in English. After inspecting the lorry, I received a quote and a technical proposal an hour later, which was also available. They suggested I give it a try! Within an hour, four new reinforced shock absorbers were fitted to the lorry and two aluminium shells raised the air springs. After a test drive of about ten kilometres, I confirmed the comfort, but was not entirely convinced at first. I paid about £1,400 for the four shock absorbers, the shells and the labour costs.

At 4 p.m., I set off again towards the Netherlands. And there I learned to appreciate the actual change: almost complete elimination of the previous shock absorbers’ bottoming out, almost no more swaying, cornering that was incomparable to the previous day. I have a tilt sensor that beeps at 20°, and it used to beep at every roundabout or sharp bend… Today, not once. That’s really impressive.

When I left, they told me that if I wasn’t satisfied, I could come back and they would try other solutions. Truly high-quality service, very customer-oriented. I can’t say anything about the durability yet, but based on what I’ve seen so far: Thank you to the team!“
