Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This set is specifically designed for the Jaguar F-Pace Sport Utility models manufactured between 2017 and 2019 featuring a power opener. Please verify your vehicle's year and model, and check if your original part number is HK8370354AA.
Setup (Installation):
Installation typically involves the following steps:
- Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the parking brake is engaged.
- Safely support the rear hatch in the open position using appropriate bracing.
- Carefully detach the old struts. This usually involves removing retaining clips or bolts.
- Attach the new maXpeedingrods struts, ensuring they are securely fastened at both the body and hatch connection points.
- Reinstall any removed components and test the power liftgate operation.
*It is highly recommended to consult your vehicle's service manual or seek professional installation if you are unfamiliar with this procedure, as improper installation can lead to safety hazards.*
Care:
These struts are sealed units and generally require no user maintenance. Keep the connection points clean from dirt and debris. Avoid applying lubricants to the strut shafts, as this can attract dirt and compromise the seal.
