Detailed Description
Febi 40647 is a rear right trunk lid lift support engineered for the Volkswagen Jetta platform listed in the fitment data. The specified dimensions, including the 489 mm length, 300.5 mm housing length, and 151 mm lifting length, help ensure the support matches the vehicle’s trunk lid geometry and opening travel. This part cross-references 5C6 827 550 for the same application.
Use Febi part number 40647 when the original trunk support no longer holds the lid securely, opens unevenly, or loses lift force over time. For Volkswagen Jetta owners servicing the rear right trunk support, this OE-style replacement helps restore normal trunk operation with the correct force rating and mounting dimensions.
What It Helps Fix
- Trunk lid that drops instead of staying open
- Weak or inconsistent lift assistance
- Uneven trunk opening on the rear right side
- Worn gas strut performance from age or use
- Difficulty accessing the trunk due to poor support
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the rear right mounting location, attachment point diameter, and overall length before installation. Compare the removed support to Febi 40647 to confirm the 18 mm housing diameter, 8 mm piston rod diameter, and 151 mm lifting length match the vehicle configuration. Check the trunk lid for smooth movement after replacement and confirm the support seats fully at both attachment points.
