Saab Deck Lid Stop Buffer - Genuine Saab 4851374

Product Information

The deck lid stop buffer is a small but important component mounted between the trunk lid (deck lid) and the vehicle body. Its primary function is to cushion and stabilize the deck lid when closed, preventing metal-to-metal contact, reducing noise, and ensuring proper alignment. Typically made from durable rubber or urethane, the stop buffer absorbs impact, minimizes vibrations, and helps maintain a secure, rattle-free fit of the trunk lid.

• Trunk lid rattling or vibration noises – caused by worn or missing buffers.
• Misaligned or uneven deck lid closure – indicates buffers are damaged or compressed.
• Visible cracks, hardening, or deterioration of rubber – reduces the buffer’s ability to absorb impact and protect the deck lid.

About Genuine Saab

The original parts used by Saab to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Saab” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Saab, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Saab Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Saab are not necessarily manufactured by Saab. No cause for concern, as Saab designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Saab for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Saab parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Saab logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
