“The handling has improved significantly”

Reinforced shock absorbers for | |

Hello, dear Marquart team,

In December, I had the Marquart shock absorbers fitted to our self-converted 2010 Iveco Daily (see photo), which had previously been used as a parcel van by the Post Office. It was only now (26 April) that I was able to make my first long motorway journeys, and I am very pleasantly surprised at how much the handling has improved: the vehicle tracks straight with precision, without the constant steering corrections previously needed to keep the ‘carriage’ on course.

The worst part, with the standard shock absorbers, was the car’s behaviour after overtaking a lorry: to avoid being pushed straight back into the right-hand lane by the pressure wave in front of the lorry, you had to countersteer quite sharply, which caused the whole car to sway violently. Very unpleasant and not entirely without risk… With the reinforced shock absorbers, you can still feel the effect, but at a maximum of 5% of the previous behaviour, it is no longer a problem.

The 2-metre overhang of the body behind the rear axle does create a significant lever effect in crosswinds, which cannot be fully counteracted. In roundabouts, you no longer feel as though you’re about to tip over onto the outer front wheel, and even when taking corners a bit more sportily, you no longer break out in a cold sweat. And the clattering noise from the front suspension when cornering on bumpy roads is also significantly reduced.

To be honest, I was actually quite sceptical at first, because the reviews from other motorhome owners on the Marquart website sounded far too optimistic to be credible. But now I’m glad I made this investment. It’s not only a huge improvement in driving comfort, but also in terms of safety.

We’re now looking forward to our next holiday trip to Hungary with our dog Lemmy.

‘The dampers are awesome!!!!’

The ‘rocking chair’ now drives like a completely different vehicle. We had to test its excellent crosswind stability extensively, especially on the AP7 Alicante-Valencia motorway. Bumps in the road are virtually ‘cushioned’ – it’s like night and day!

You’re doing a great job! I’ll pass that on!

Installing the rear shock absorbers was difficult because I had to get additional spacers for the shock absorber mounts at the bottom, but I found them at a hardware store in Aspe. Please let your workshop manager know; I spoke to him briefly on the phone last week during installation.

Greetings also to the shipping department, Löningen to Aspe in Spain in 3.5 working days, that’s unbeatable!!!!!

Warm greetings from the Ebro Delta

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.

‘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‘

‘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.’

‘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.’

‘Your shock absorbers are amazing’

Reinforced shock absorbers for | |

‘It’s amazing how a shock absorber can change the driving behaviour of a motorhome. Super advice, easy ordering – where can you still find that in our country?’

We drive a 2005 EZ Flair 920 motorhome and we have to say that if we had known about you earlier, we would have changed the shock absorbers as soon as we took delivery of the vehicle. Many thanks to the Marquart team for the expert advice and fast delivery. It’s a dream to be on the road with your shock absorbers.’
