Hood or boot lid air-spring replacement

A hood or trunk cover strut is hydraulic-gas actuator which helps you open the hood or trunk cover and supports it after opening. If one or two struts fail, you need to use much more power than normally to open the hood or trunk, and you can't leave it open. The struts are not repairable and must be replaced with new ones. If the hood or trunk cover is equipped with two struts, you must change them both.

Tips

  • Use only struts dedicated for your car model
  • The trunk cover may way up to 10 kilograms, so if the struts fail, you may be unable to use it

Scope of services
