Product Information

If you have ever been hit in the head with a wagon hatch you already know how painful it is. Part of the advantage of owning a wagon over a sedan is easy access to the storage area in the back. However, the pressurized gas struts are what keep the hatch open and when these struts fail it can be nearly impossible to safely load and unload the trunk of your wagon. Don't mess around with your safety and replace the gas struts with this OEM replacement.

Liftgate Lift Support

Liftgate supports, or gas struts, are pressurized cylinders designed to hold up a liftgate or rear hatch. Over time, they can fail due to a pressure drop, often caused by exposure to extreme temperatures, dust, or contaminants. Cold weather, in particular, can reduce the gas pressure inside the struts, making them less effective at supporting the gate during cooler conditions.

Liftgate Lift Support Failure Symptoms
  • The hatch may feel heavier or fail to stay open as high as before due to a gas leak in the lift support
  • Grease or oil leaking from the existing shocks
  • Seeping noise or creaks coming from the shocks when lifting the hatch

Can't go wrong!
Old struts were getting a little weak. These were easy to install and super strong, one is enough to hold the hatch on my E91 open. Great Stabilus quality!

Perfect replacement for rear hatch struts
I own a 2011 328i Sports Wagon and bought these to replace the rear hatch struts. They fit perfect and are extremely easy to install, just losen up the clips and pop them in. My old ones went out from some rust and ended up cracking. If the same thing happens again, I'll be using FCP Euro's free lifetime replacement for these. That is pretty awesome.

Shade Tree quasi expert
In all likelihood, Stabilus built the original strut but anyway, the Rear hatch was getting heavier than it should be after 9 years. Very easy job to change the two struts and restore the tailgate to its former glory. I like everything on my cars to work properly. FCP makes that easier.
