Tailgate Gas Struts for BMW E85 Z4 51247016186 250N 296mm
Restore reliable operation to the rear boot flap with these tailored gas struts designed specifically for the BMW E85 Z4 Convertible (2003–2009). When original dampers lose internal pressure, tailgates become difficult to lift and frequently droop unexpectedly, creating safety hazards and cargo inconvenience. Replacing them with high-performance 250N units returns smooth movement and firm holding power every time you open the hatch.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Swap out leaking or weak struts when the boot falls slowly on its own or refuses to lock in the upright position.
- Gently compress the piston while aligning the factory mounting brackets parallel to the tailgate edge to prevent thread damage.
- Use a soft cloth around the metal rods during handling to protect the black protective coating and avoid accidental scratches.
