Purpose and vehicle placement

The presented set of gas struts is designed for installation in the front part of the body, on the left and right sides. This arrangement guarantees balanced support for the bonnet, limits its twisting, and reduces the load on the hinges and locks.

Thanks to the dedicated fit for the VW Touareg 7L construction, the components work with factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and allows for maintaining the original opening geometry of the engine cover.

Function and benefits of use

Bonnet gas struts are responsible for:

• controlled lifting of the engine cover without the need for significant force,
• stable holding of the bonnet in the open position during service work,
• limiting the sudden dropping of the bonnet when closing.

Using the original set allows for maintaining the proper operating parameters of the bonnet lifting system, which translates into safe engine compartment maintenance and a lower risk of mechanical damage to the hinges and locks.

Product characteristics and fitment

The set includes components designed to work on both sides of the bonnet, which is particularly important when replacing worn-out struts – simultaneous replacement of the left and right side ensures uniform operation and predictable behavior of the cover. The product comes from the Volkswagen offer, thanks to which factory standards of workmanship and compatibility with the body structure are maintained.

The element is classified in the Hinges, locks and other bonnet parts group, which means it works with other components responsible for opening, guiding, and locking the engine cover, creating a coherent mechanical system.

Condition and practical application
