Tenneco expands and renames aftermarket range of Monroe electronic shocks
Each unit is engineered to continuously adapt its compression and rebound forces to changing driving conditions to deliver optimal handling precision, control and NVH reduction.

Tenneco Inc, a global supplier of ride performance and clean air products and systems, has announced it has renamed and expanded its range of premium replacement electronic shock absorbers, branding the line Monroe intelligent suspension RideSense and announcing that 18 new part numbers will be available beginning in the first quarter of 2019.

Designed for direct-fit replacement of original equipment shocks on vehicles featuring electronic suspension technology, the comprehensive RideSense line – on display at Tenneco’s Automechanika booth (Hall 4, Stand C11) – now includes 50 part numbers covering more than 15 million vehicles registered in the EMEA region.

Monroe intelligent suspension RideSense replacement shock absorbers are fully compatible with Tenneco-manufactured OE electronic suspension systems found in popular passenger cars, light trucks and SUVs.

Electronic damping technology

Maurits Binnendijk, vice president and general manager, Europe aftermarket, Tenneco, said: “Global OEMs are increasingly integrating electronic damping technology into their vehicles to deliver a superior driving experience, and aftermarket demand for compatible replacement products is growing.

“Tenneco has continuously expanded its range of advanced suspension solutions to leverage this growth opportunity.

“Our RideSense replacement electronic shock absorbers utilize advanced valving and other leading-edge technologies to ensure continued normal operation and proper ride height once a vehicle’s original shocks become too worn.”

Each Monroe intelligent suspension RideSense damper connects to an ECU that manages sensor inputs like wheel acceleration, body displacement and steering angle, using gathered data to react to changing road and driving situations in as little as ten milliseconds.

The shocks provide optimal comfort and vehicle control, by improving wheel-to-road contact, reducing oscillations during obstacle avoidance, improving control during lane changes and a host of other benefits in vehicles fitted with electronic suspension systems.

Monroe intelligent suspension RideSense shocks are engineered to meet each vehicle’s specific OE ride and handling profile and come with a five-year product quality and performance limited warranty.
