Troubleshooting
Bonnet does not stay open after installation.
Ensure both struts are correctly fitted and fully engaged at the mounting points. Verify the correct part number was installed for your vehicle model. If issues persist, consult a professional mechanic.
Bonnet is difficult to lift or close.
Check that the struts are not binding. Ensure no other components are obstructing the bonnet's movement. Improper alignment during installation can cause this.
Gas strut appears to be leaking fluid.
If you observe any fluid residue around the strut, it indicates a leak. The strut should be replaced immediately as it has lost its gas pressure and support function.
