BMW Hood Shock - Tuff Support 51238240596

Product Information

Hood lift supports, or gas struts, are pressurized cylinders designed to hold up a car's hood. 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 hood during cooler conditions.

• The hood 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 hood or trunk
• Hood or trunk fails to stay open when raised
