Based on industry averages you can expect to pay between $11.59 and $64.99 for a BMW 335i hood strut.
A BMW 335i hood strut is a component designed to support and hold up the hood of the car. It functions as a hydraulic or gas-filled cylinder that connects the hood to the body of the vehicle. When the hood is opened, the strut extends and provides the necessary resistance to keep the hood in an upright position. This allows for easy access to the engine compartment, as well as providing stability and safety while performing maintenance or inspections under the hood. The BMW 335i hood strut ensures that the hood stays securely open when raised and prevents it from unexpectedly closing while working on the car.
Why BMW 335i Hood Struts Fail
There are a few common reasons why a BMW 335i hood strut may fail:
- Age and wear: Over time, the internal components of the hood strut may wear out, leading to reduced performance or complete failure.
- Oil leakage: Inside the hood strut, there is a small amount of oil that helps with its dampening function. If there is a leak in the strut, the oil may escape, resulting in reduced pressure and ultimately, failure.
- Damaged or worn seals: The seals in the hood strut can deteriorate due to exposure to the elements or regular use. Once the seals are compromised, it can lead to fluid leakage and subsequent failure.
- Overextension: If the hood is opened forcefully or pushed beyond its intended limit, the hood strut may get overextended. This can cause internal damage to the strut's components, leading to failure.
- Environmental factors: Extreme temperatures, exposure to harsh weather conditions, or corrosive substances can impact the performance and longevity of the hood strut, potentially causing it to fail prematurely.
- Poor maintenance: Lack of regular maintenance, such as cleaning and lubrication, can accelerate the deterioration of the hood strut and contribute to its failure.
Keep in mind that these are general reasons for hood strut failure and may not apply to every specific case. If you are experiencing issues with your BMW 335i hood strut, it is recommended to consult a professional mechanic for an accurate diagnosis and proper repair.
