Purpose and function of the strut

The electric tailgate strut is responsible for the automatic lifting and closing of the lid, working in conjunction with the body control unit and the comfort access system. Its placement in the rear – right side area means this component operates at a critical point of the lifting mechanism, influencing the stability of the tailgate movement and the even distribution of loads.

A properly selected strut guarantees:

• consistent operation with the factory electric tailgate opening system,
• controlled movement speed of the tailgate, without jerking or overloading,
• maintenance of the correct operating geometry of hinges and guides.

Benefits of using an original Audi component

The original strut from the Audi range has been designed specifically for the body structure of the A7 4G generation, ensuring it retains factory mounting points and operating parameters. This fitment translates into:

• precise fitment with the tailgate and bodywork,
• proper cooperation with the vehicle's electronics,
• reduced risk of comfort system errors and tailgate position sensor faults.

Choosing an original component from the Tailgates and rear parts category allows you to maintain the technical integrity of the entire rear lid system, which is essential for both durability and vehicle safety.

Installation and operational characteristics

The strut is intended for installation in the rear right part of the vehicle, at the factory mounting location. The design provided by the manufacturer allows for a plug-and-play style installation, maintaining original screw points and electrical cable routing.

When replacing, it is worth paying attention to:

• the condition of the tailgate hinges and other lifting mechanism components,
• correct routing of the electrical harness,
• calibration of the tailgate position in the vehicle system after installation (in accordance with the service procedure).

This approach allows you to fully utilize the capabilities of the electric strut and reduce wear on other system components.

Condition of the part and economic aspect

The presented strut is a used component, which offers a favorable compromise between the quality of original equipment and service costs. For many Audi A7 users, this is a sensible way to restore full tailgate functionality without the need to invest in a new subassembly.
