Detailed Description

URO part number 1J6827550E is a rear hatch lift support engineered for Volkswagen Golf and Volkswagen Passat models in the listed chassis ranges. It replaces a worn or weak lift strut to help the hatch open smoothly and stay supported during use. This OE-style replacement is a practical choice when the original gas strut no longer holds the hatch with consistent force.

This part cross-references VAICO V10-1929 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Hatch that drops or will not stay open
• Weak or uneven lift assistance at the rear hatch
• Slow, heavy, or inconsistent hatch movement
• Noise or rough operation from a worn gas strut
• Leak-related loss of support from an aging lift support
