Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me correctly identify the right part for my 2008 Turbo.
I bought 2 struts from UK and shipped them to UAE only to discover from my Porsche specialist that the left and right are different.
This is what I bought which I think is fine for the right hand side

This is what I`ve bought already x2
However when I`m looking for the correct left hand strut the descriptions vary based on part number #955 512 550 07 Below are my 2 options found so far. Can anyone confirm either are correct?

This is an aftermarket offering from Ebay USA

These are used from Ebay UK but I`m curious about the hydraulic lines. They dont look like they are removable which then makes me think the previous pic is an incorrect part???

 

Anyone?
Surely someone must have the knowledge on this as apparently its a common failure?

 

Do you have a motorized tailgate? In that case, you only have 1 strut on the passenger side. The other strut is the motor, and does not need to be replaced unless if fails to open and close the tailgate.
What is the problem with your tailgate?

 

Its motorised.

It tries to lift, seems to be too weak then beeps at me. It now only raises around 6"

 

This is a classic sign of a weak battery. One test for Cayenne batteries is to try to raise and lower the rear hatch three times. If it fails to raise or lower at any time, battery is often the cause.

 

I has a brand new battery
