Hold the hood up smoothly and steadily with the Stabilus Lift-O-Mat Hood Lift Support 3B-002433, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic damping speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many 1998-2012 Mercedes-Benz models — including the E320, E350, E500, E550, CLS500 and CLS550 — so see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered applications.

This lift support holds the raised hood in place and controls how it opens. The Lift-O-Mat uses a longitudinal groove — a velocity manifold — pressed into the tube wall, letting gas flow around the piston with extension speed and damping tuned for this application. The groove profile narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop with minimal impact.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
  • Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards.
  • Easy to install: requires no special tools.
  • OE-based design: based on the OE design to help ensure proper fit, form and function; for best results, replace in pairs.

If a worn strut that no longer holds the hood up or drops slowly is the cause, this unit replaces it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this hood lift support do?

It's a gas-charged strut that holds the raised hood open and, with dynamic damping speed control, manages a smooth, controlled opening motion without bouncing or jerking.

Will this fit my vehicle?

It's a direct-fit replacement for many 1998-2012 Mercedes-Benz E- and CLS-class models, including the E320, E350, E500, E550, CLS500 and CLS550. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

Should I replace both supports at once?

For best results, replace them in pairs. Both struts typically wear at a similar rate, so replacing both helps keep the hood's opening and holding motion balanced.

Do I need special tools to install it?

No. This lift support is based on the OE design and installs without special tools. Consult your vehicle service information for the correct procedure.

What are signs this part may need replacing?

A hood that no longer stays up, drops slowly on its own, or opens with a jerky, uncontrolled motion are signs the lift support may be worn and need replacing.
