Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a rear electric tailgate gas strut?
A rear electric tailgate gas strut supports and assists in the automatic opening and closing of the vehicle’s rear liftgate using gas-pressure lift support. It replaces the original strut units to maintain smooth tailgate movement.
Q: How do I know if my tailgate gas strut needs replacing?
Common signs include the tailgate failing to stay open, closing unevenly, moving jerkily, or requiring significant manual force. A weak, noisy or slow response often indicates worn struts.
Q: Which vehicles is this compatible with?
This rear left electric tailgate gas strut is compatible with Volvo XC40 (536) models — including diesel, petrol, mild hybrid and pure electric variants from approximately 2017-2024 — using OEM part number 32296296. Always check the part number before purchase.
Q: Can I replace the strut myself?
Yes — many owners can replace the gas strut with basic tools. However, if the tailgate is equipped with sensors or electric assistance, professional installation is recommended to ensure correct fitment and calibration.
Q: Should I replace one strut or both at the same time?
It’s generally recommended to replace both left and right struts together to maintain balanced support and even lift performance.
