Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What is a tailgate lift support strut?
A tailgate lift support strut is a gas-filled or hydraulic rod that helps raise and hold the tailgate (boot) open smoothly and securely without manual force.
Q2: Why should I replace my tailgate strut?
Over time, tailgate struts lose gas pressure and won’t support the weight of the hatch properly. This can make the tailgate hard to lift or cause it to drop unexpectedly — replacing both struts restores normal operation.
Q3: Which Audi models does this fit?
This support strut is compatible with Audi A5 Sportback, S5 Sportback and RS5 Sportback (8W series) from 2016 to 2023 — confirm using your vehicle’s VIN or part number before purchasing.
Q4: Can I replace the tailgate strut myself?
Yes — many DIYers can fit tailgate struts with basic tools. However, be cautious when removing the old strut as the tailgate can drop — support it safely while working.
Q5: Do I need to replace both struts at the same time?
It’s recommended to replace both struts together because if one has weakened, the other may soon follow — pairing ensures balanced lift and even support.
