Technical Details

• Supplied part reference: 99751155101.
• Component type: gas-pressure spring / gas-filled strut.
• Installation position: front bonnet.
• The supplied assembly diagrams specify two struts per vehicle; this does not establish pack quantity.
  
  

Symptoms of Fault

Why Replacement Matters

A weakened strut can leave the bonnet feeling heavier or unable to remain raised. Replacing a worn damper addresses lost lid support; inspect the other strut and mounting points when assessing the fault.
