What This Part Does / Functions:
•  Supports the front bonnet when open
•  Helps raise and hold the bonnet securely
•  Provides controlled bonnet opening and closing movement
•  Helps prevent the bonnet from dropping unexpectedly
•  Replaces a weak, leaking, damaged or failed original damper
•  Provides correct OE Porsche length, pressure and end fitting
•  Fits the left or right side where specified
•  Helps maintain safe and convenient access to the front luggage / service area.

Why Replace This Part?
Bonnet dampers are gas-filled struts that weaken over time through age, regular use, temperature changes and seal wear. A tired or leaking damper may no longer support the bonnet properly, causing it to drop, close too quickly or require manual support. Replacing worn units with OE Genuine Porsche front bonnet dampers restores proper bonnet support, smooth operation and factory fitment.

Common Symptoms of a Weak Bonnet Damper
•   Bonnet does not stay open
•   Bonnet slowly drops after being raised
•   Bonnet feels heavy to lift
•   Bonnet closes too quickly
•   Visible oil leakage from the damper
•   Weak gas pressure in cold weather
•   Damper rod is bent, corroded or damaged
•   Bonnet support feels uneven from side to side.

When to Replace This Part
 If the bonnet will not stay securely open. If one or both dampers have lost pressure. If the damper is leaking, bent or damaged. During front lid / bonnet service or repair. After accident or front bodywork repair. If the bonnet movement is uneven or uncontrolled. When replacing aged bonnet support struts. When maintaining the vehicle with OE Genuine Porsche parts.

Where It Fits on the Car
This damper fits on the front bonnet / front lid assembly of the Porsche Taycan. It mounts between the vehicle body and front lid to support the bonnet when open.
