Detailed Description
Lesjofors has a long manufacturing history dating back to 1675, and this lift support reflects that experience in a direct-fit replacement for Audi A3 models. Use 8104229 when you need a replacement that matches the vehicle-specific application rather than a universal prop or generic gas strut. This part cross-references 8P4827552B and 8P4827552C for the same application. If you are searching for an Audi A3 lift support, Audi A3 hatch support, or Audi A3 gas strut replacement, 8104229 is the cataloged part to review.
What It Helps Address
- Liftgate, hood, or panel that no longer stays open securely
- Slow or uneven opening action
- Loss of support pressure from a worn gas strut
- Difficulty accessing rear or front compartments on an Audi A3
- Noise or instability caused by a failing support unit
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle year and body style before ordering. Confirm the existing part number and compare it to 8104229, 8P4827552B, or 8P4827552C to match the correct Audi A3 application. Inspect mounting points and surrounding hardware for wear before installation, and replace the support only after confirming the lift point is properly aligned.
