What are the benefits of replacing with electric tailgate struts?
Restores power-lift functionality for the tailgate
Prevents the tailgate from sagging or failing to open smoothly
Enhances safety by ensuring correct load on the tailgate mechanism
Delivers a more premium, high-end user experience when opening/closing
How difficult is the installation? Do I need to remove interior trim panels?
Installation is moderately technical:
Will I get any error messages after fitting these struts?
It depends. Some users report issues like the tailgate only partially opening or not closing properly:
On Reddit, one Q3 owner said their tailgate only closed 75% after fitting new struts. > “I have to push it down to get it to fully close.”
Another said their tailgate opened halfway and slams shut when trying to reset its position.
This can be down to incorrect limit settings, wiring issues, or control module calibration — but DDP AutoParts’ support team can guide you through troubleshooting.
Is there a risk of noise or creaking from the new struts?
Some Q3 owners have reported creaking noises from the electric struts, especially when they’re older or the motor components are worn. To mitigate this, make sure struts are properly lubricated and mounted securely.
What safety precautions should I take when installing?
What warranty or return support do I get from DDP AutoParts?
We back our struts with a standard parts warranty. If you run into any problems — fitment, noise, or motor issues — our customer support team will work with you to resolve them or arrange a return.
