Womala Support Strut 30852060 Gas Struts for Volvo S40 Body Auto Parts

Core Functions

• Lifting & Holding: Provides balanced lifting force to open the trunk lid or hood smoothly with minimal manual effort. It also holds the component securely in the open position (e.g., keeping the hood raised during engine maintenance), preventing sudden dropping and ensuring safety.
• Damping & Cushioning: Controls the speed of opening/closing to avoid slamming. This reduces impact noise and prevents damage to the trunk/hood hinges or body panels caused by abrupt movement.
• Wear Reduction: Reduces friction on hinges and latches by bearing the weight of the trunk/hood. This extends the service life of these components and maintains their structural integrity.

Notes

1. 1. Application Specific: Confirm whether this strut is for the trunk lid or hood—Volvo S40 (-04) uses distinct gas struts for different positions (they differ in length and lifting force). Check the original strut’s part number or consult Volvo’s service manual for clarity.
   2. Replacement Pairing: Gas struts lose pressure over time (typically 3–5 years). For balanced performance, replace struts in pairs (even if only one fails)—using a new and old strut together will cause uneven force, leading to misalignment or premature wear.
   3. Safety Precautions: When replacing, use a prop (e.g., a sturdy rod) to hold the trunk/hood open—never rely on a weak or failed strut. Also, avoid compressing or disassembling the strut manually (high-pressure gas inside can cause injury if released unexpectedly).
