Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support P/N:5B-824589
Raise and hold the rear glass with a smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support 5B-017353, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details), supporting the back glass as it opens and holding it in the raised position.
For best results, replace lift supports in pairs. When a weak or worn gas strut is why the glass drops or won't stay up, this replaces it.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What vehicle does this lift support fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2010 Volkswagen Touareg. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your specific vehicle.
What does this back glass lift support do?
It is a gas-charged strut that helps raise the rear glass and holds it in the open position, using dynamic damping for a smooth, controlled opening motion.
Should I replace both lift supports at once?
For best results, Stabilus recommends replacing lift supports in pairs so both sides provide consistent support and motion.
What is Lift-O-Mat dynamic damping?
A groove pressed into the tube wall guides gas around the piston to control extension speed, and it narrows near the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
Are special tools needed to install it?
No. This lift support is designed for easy installation and requires no special tools. Consult your vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
