bij m'n 90er V8 was het nog met veren.
Ik las dat de latere V8-en gasdempers hebben om de kofferklep open te houden ipv de garageveren van de typ44-serie.
Geen idee of dit bij alle V8-en zo is, of alleen de laatste bouwjaren.
Maar wie kan wat plaatjes posten van de montage enzo ??
Ik wil dit ook gaan toepassen in de 200, maar geen idee hoe de montage enzo is.
er zit inmiddels een paar jaar tussen, maar even wat extra info (misschien voor jou, misschien voor de volgende persoon die hier op zoekt)
op mijn 4.2 uit 93 zitten gasveren... ik zal hier nog wel foto's van maken
Hey Niels,
Zoals je misschien zelf al gezien hebt op w w w punt vag cat punt com zijn die akelig grote beugels gewoon hetzelfde.
Alleen op de plek van de "garagedeur-veren" komen dan die gasdempertjes.

Gas Struts for Trunk Hinges, 1986-88 5000TQ, 1989-91 100/200,1990 V8
There is an upgrade available to add gas struts to the rear trunk hinges and remove the garage door springs currently used.
Service bulletin, GROUP 55, # 91-04 (June 1991) shows the following parts: (There may be a newer bulletin on this)
2 gas struts 441-827-551,
4 ball studs 533-827-345C,
4 M8 self locking nuts,
4 flat washers, 8.0mm (5/16).
Are you tired of getting your head banged from the trunk lid latch when parked on a steep incline?
I have not done this upgrade (yet) but 2 quattro list members have done this upgrade, one owns a 87 5000TQ and the other member did the upgrade on a 1991 200TQ. They offered the following installation tips.
The procedure involves removing the plastic trunk liners on each side and then remove the existing trunk spring and remove the plastic bushing on the trunk hinge bar. Install the ball stud into the hinge plate as shown here.

Install the strut on the hinge and then prop open the trunk to allow marking the location of the hole that will be drilled in the welded wheel house seam.
NOTE: When choosing the front ball stud mounting hole location, make sure the trunk lid will open and close fully before the strut gets fully extended or compressed.
Next step is to drill the hole in the seam to mount the front ball stud. Take care not to drill into any wiring in the area. This photo gives some details on where the strut is mounted.

Trial fit the strut to the newly mounted ball studs, and test the setup by slowly opening and closing the trunk. Make sure the wiring harness to the trunk lid has enough slack to avoid interfering with the new strut. Next you will need to remove the strut and trial fit the plastic liners back in the trunk and mark the location of the hole that will be cut in the plastic liner to allow the front ball pin to stick out after the liner has been re-installed. Install the strut after re-installing the liners on each side over the front ball studs. Apparently the V8's after July 1990 build date already have this strut upgrade.
No more head banging!
