Symptoms of Fault

Reduced lid support, unexpected downward movement, difficulty raising the hatch, or creaks and knocks during operation can warrant inspection. These symptoms alone do not confirm that the electronic strut requires replacement.

Why Replacement Matters

A deteriorated damper can affect rear hatch support and movement. Replacement addresses a confirmed component fault, while checking the associated mounting points and electrical connections helps avoid overlooking another cause. Match the original reference and chassis details before fitting.
