So the left strut is different with electric open/close. The right strut is same as normal 1,000N force with external spring.
Left gas spring is only about 300N so much less important. I've changed only the right one, all is good certainly on level ground now. Did it on my own using telescopic pole to hold boot fully open. Used Volvosweden youtube video as guide. Tried to get spring from from autodoc at first, ended up cancelling the order as they still hadn't dispatched after 4 days despite having stock. Ordered from parts in motion, dispatched straight away, and £10 less for same Stabilis spring. Had something else from them recently, that was also dispatched straight away. I'll use them as preferred source in future. |
