Compatible with 2010-2014 Volkswagen GTI, 2010-2013 Volkswagen Golf, and 2012-2013 Volkswagen Golf R. This Febi 31644 lift support is a direct-fit trunk lid support for Volkswagen hatchback applications that use the listed dimensions and 550 N extension force.

Febi’s febi product line focuses on OE-style replacement components for European vehicles, with attention to dimensional accuracy and application-specific fitment. For shoppers searching for a Volkswagen GTI trunk lift support, Golf hatch lift strut, or Golf R rear hatch support, Febi 31644 is the relevant part number to verify.

What It Helps Solve

• Trunk lid that drops instead of staying open
• Weak or slow hatch lift action
• Uneven support on left or right side
• Noise or binding from worn gas struts
• Difficulty loading cargo with a sagging rear hatch

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the attachment point diameter, housing length, and overall length against the original support before installation. Confirm left and right placement on the vehicle and compare the existing lift support’s force rating and mounting style to Febi 31644. For best results, replace a worn support when the trunk lid no longer holds position consistently.
