Gas Spring
Product Description:
The Maserati part number 69054500 gas spring is a trunk gas spring used in the Maserati GranTurismo. It is located on the rear of the car and helps to open and close the trunk lid. The gas spring is made of a metal cylinder that contains compressed gas. When the trunk lid is opened, the gas expands and forces the lid up. When the lid is closed, the gas compresses and forces the lid down.
The gas spring helps to make it easier to open and close the trunk lid. It also helps to prevent the lid from slamming shut, which could damage the car. The gas spring is a wear item and will eventually need to be replaced. The signs that a gas spring needs to be replaced include:
- The trunk lid is difficult to open or close.
- The trunk lid does not stay open or closed all the way.
- The trunk lid makes a popping or clicking noise when it is opened or closed.
If you notice any of these signs, it is recommended to have the gas spring replaced by a qualified mechanic.
