The Bilstein B4 OE Replacement 19-216003 is a rear twintube damper unit for the 2008–2014 Mini Cooper Clubman (R55). It belongs to Bilstein's B4 OE Replacement line, which is built to keep the factory ride feel, damping balance and body control rather than to deliver a firmer, track-focused setup. For a Clubman whose rear end has gone floaty over highway expansion joints or bouncy on rough pavement after years of wear, a like-for-like rear replacement restores the original comfort-to-composure balance at a much lower cost than a coilover conversion.
Replacing both rear units together keeps damping matched side to side, which matters for stability when cornering or braking hard. Enthusiasts searching for R55 Clubman rear shock replacement, 2008-2014 Clubman rear twintube damper, or OE-style rear strut for Mini Clubman usually want a direct fit that avoids altering ride height or spring rate. Before ordering, confirm your Clubman has the standard rear suspension, since sport-suspension cars may need a different part, and check the side and position against your vehicle's original unit.
