This Lesjofors hatch lift support is a gas spring designed to ease lifting and support the weight of your rear hatch. It is a direct OEM replacement for Volkswagen Passat (B3) models from 1990 to 1993, including 2.0L four-cylinder and 2.8L V6 variants. Over time, factory supports lose pressure, and this aftermarket part restores proper hatch operation with reliable performance.
