Common Issues with Audi A3 Bonnet Struts
If your Audi A3 is showing any of the following signs, it might be time to consider replacing the Audi A3 Bonnet Struts:
- Difficulty Opening: If the bonnet is slow to lift or struggles to stay up, it’s often a sign the struts have lost their internal gas pressure, making it harder to keep the bonnet open.
- Unexpected Closure: A bonnet that slams down without warning indicates that the struts can no longer support the bonnet’s weight, signaling a need for replacement.
- Physical Damage: If the struts show any visible damage—such as rust, cracks, oil leakage, or bending—it's time to replace them to prevent further issues.
