‘The shock absorbers are fantastic!‘


‘Good evening, Andreas, how are you? I just wanted to say that the shock absorbers are fantastic! The handling has completely changed for the better, thank you very much!’

“Why on earth didn’t I do this sooner?! Or: How I got a completely new motorhome in just four hours!

Sometimes there are moments when you ask yourself: Why didn’t I do that sooner? That’s exactly how I felt about my motorhome. We had just spent six weeks in Corsica – six weeks during which my chassis felt more like a bouncy castle than a stable road vehicle. Winding mountain passes? An adventure. Ruts? Pure horror. So it was clear: something had to be done!

Numerous enthusiastic reports online led me to Marquart Stoßdämpfer, a specialist company in the tranquil town of Löningen. The people there were being celebrated – so there had to be something to it. I got in touch and Andreas W., chassis planner and consultant, was right on the ball. Once he had all the data for ‘Charly’s car’ – weights, axle loads and everything else that’s important – he put together a detailed quote for me in record time. Precise, tailor-made and simply good. I didn’t have to think twice.

A little later, I found myself standing in the courtyard of Mercedes-Benz Raters in Löningen, where I was greeted by Norbert S. And what a character! A real mechanic with heart and soul. A senior journeyman, commercial vehicle specialist and someone who doesn’t just do his job – he lives it. With around twenty years of Ducato experience under my belt, I know my way around these machines, but Norbert? He was in a league of his own. Friendly, precise, thorough – simply a professional through and through.

And then we were off. A good four hours later, my motorhome was standing in front of me – but somehow it wasn’t. Because the thing waiting for me suddenly felt like a completely different vehicle! To top it all off, there was an extensive test drive with a Marquart technician – and I was speechless.

No more bottoming out – whether on potholes or bumpy roads. Cornering? Suddenly relaxed! No more swaying, no more queasy feeling. Swaying? A thing of the past! Everything stays calm, even in ruts and crosswinds. Driving experience? More like a large SUV than a heavy van!

I really didn’t think that a new chassis could make such a difference. I drove the 200 kilometres back to the Ruhr region with a big smile on my face. Why didn’t I do this five years ago? I have no idea. But one thing I do know: it was the best decision I’ve made in a long time!

A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible: The fantastic team at Marquart Stoßdämpfer The legendary mechanics at Mercedes-Benz Raters And even the Löningen city council for the free motorhome parking space – you really make life easier for campers!

So if you’re also struggling with your motorhome and have a back like a pensioner after every trip – just do it! Your motorhome (your dishes and your spinal discs) will thank you for it.“

‘Just as it should be’

‘The damper arrived, I installed it immediately and took it for a test drive… Sensational, I have a new truck. It’s tougher, but it no longer sways. It’s also as it should be off-road. Thank you for this great work!!’
Marcel W. from Menziken 

‘Like a completely different vehicle’

‘On 13/03/2025, I had my old original Iveco shock absorbers replaced with Marquart shock absorbers at Iveco Georg Stark in Bamberg as part of the inspection, HU and AU. Thanks again to @ivecoStark for installing the dampers I supplied so unbureaucratically. And otherwise super nice staff. I chose the setting of stage 2 at the front and stage 4 at the rear on the recommendation of @marquardtstossdämpfer. Very good advice on the phone and fast shipping to the desired address. The suspension was also measured and adjusted.

Now our vehicle (Concorde 900M) handles like a completely different one. Super straight-line stability, no rocking and significantly less buckling over the front axle in curves. Simply more stable. I can’t feel any of the front axle penetrating at all, I even find the suspension more comfortable. In my opinion, a significant increase in driving safety. I can highly recommend it.’

‘Service like this is rare’

‘Dear Mr Saadi,I would like to get in touch with you and thank you and your very friendly colleague who was with me at Mercedes for the great way you handled the job. It’s rare to get a service like that these days. Thanks again.Kind regards from Hamburg’

‘Unconditional recommendation’

‘Installed the new Marquart dampers in a Carthago S Plus today. Really good result, worth every euro! Roll behaviour, directional stability, etc. have improved significantly. Unbelievable. Why are standard dampers still being delivered ex-works in this price range? Unreservedly recommended, many thanks to Löningen.’

‘It’s like riding on rails!’

‘Perfect!!! We have installed the reinforced dampers on both axles of our RMB / Sprinter 4.9-tonne motorhome. It now drives as if on rails and is very comfortable, well tuned. Even when fully loaded with 1 tonne, it’s consistent. Time and time again!!’

‘I’m very happy with the driving behaviour.’

‘Hello Mr Wördemann, just wanted to get back to you. I installed the dampers myself. Mercedes wanted €1200 net for the two front dampers alone, which I thought was a bit cheeky. It took me just under three hours for all of them.’

I am very satisfied with the driving behaviour. I don’t find it too hard, really nicely sporty, and the cornering behaviour is good – even at higher speeds.’
Sven C. from Hamburg 

‘The driving experience is pure pleasure.’

‘Dear Mr Neumann, I have Marquart dampers with coilover springs at the front and Marquart dampers with additional air suspension at the rear of my Sprinter 419 4-matic. The driving experience is a pleasure. The Sprinter continues to impress with its typical comfort and, even when fully loaded, it shines with a tight chassis that does not rock or swing. Your chassis components on my Sprinter are first class.’
Stefan W. from Großenhain

‘A very good result’

‘The motorhome handles superbly on poor roads, there is practically no more rocking and very little pitching. It’s a real pleasure to drive, even on the motorway at high speeds. I’ve replaced the four shock absorbers that were 18 years old and I’m getting a very good result. Thank you again and I’ll recommend you to other motorhome owners.’
