  • Weak or inconsistent rear lid support
  • Difficulty keeping the trunk open during loading or unloading
  • Worn lift support cylinder performance
  • Noise or rough movement from an aging trunk support

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, stroke length, and 10 mm ball-socket end style before installation. Confirm the vehicle application and note the Passat fitment detail for 1998-2001 models with bracket for warning triangle. For safe, balanced operation, replace lift supports in pairs when servicing the trunk lid system.
