Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented gas strut is dedicated to the rear body section of the Audi Q5 8R generation and works on both the right and left sides. It is responsible for the controlled opening and closing of the tailgate, reducing the load on the hinges and facilitating operation even with frequent use.

Thanks to properly selected operating parameters, this component stabilizes the movement of the tailgate, prevents sudden dropping, and supports comfortable access to the cargo area, which is particularly important in the daily operation of a family or company car.

Original origin and fitment

The strut comes from the line of original Audi parts, which translates into maintaining factory standards of assembly and operation. This means proper fitment to the body mounts, compatibility with the tailgate geometry, and predictable behavior throughout the full range of opening.

The original design ensures:

• consistency with the factory hinge and mounting system,
• correct lifting force characteristics,
• preservation of the original tailgate ergonomics.

Technical specifications and installation

The strut operates in the rear body zone, on the right and left side, which allows it to be used as a replacement element in the existing tailgate lifting system. The design is intended for installation in factory mounting points, which facilitates service and reduces replacement time.

With proper installation, you achieve:

• even support of the tailgate on both sides,
• stable holding of the lid in the open position,
• smooth, controlled closing without excessive vibrations.

Condition and service application

The item is in used condition, making it an attractive service solution for users looking for original parts at a reasonable price. It can be used both as a replacement for a worn-out strut and as part of a comprehensive tailgate repair after operational damage.

When planning work on the rear tailgate, it is also worth considering other components from the Loading tailgates group, available in our assortment – you can find the full offer in the Loading tailgates category.
