Description
xProduct Overview
Please note the side before ordering: the Genuine Porsche Rear Hood Gas Pressure Shock Strut 95551255007A is the LEFT side rear lid gas-filled strut for the Porsche Cayenne, catalogue number 95551255007. The live title for this listing does not state the side, but factory and specialist listings for 95551255007 are explicit that this number is the left strut, for Cayenne cars from 2007 to 2010 without a power hatch. A tired strut lets the heavy rear lid drop or close on its own, and the genuine strut restores safe, controlled lift.
Part Numbers & Reference Codes
Listing OE part number: 95551255007A. Factory catalogue number: 95551255007, also written 955.512.550.07, listed in the Cayenne rear deck lid diagram 803-05 as gas-filled strut, L. The companion strut for the earlier Cayenne range is 95551255006, which is a different application, so do not mix the two numbers. Always order and verify by part number and side before ordering.
Vehicle Compatibility & Fitment
This left strut fits Porsche Cayenne (955 and 957) cars from 2007 to 2010, on cars without the power hatch option. It supports the rear lid, also called the rear hood or trunk lid in some listings. See the Fitment Details tab for the model table, and confirm side, year and hatch type with your VIN before ordering.
Key Features & Benefits
- Genuine Porsche strut: original equipment gas-filled strut made to Porsche factory specification for the Cayenne rear lid.
- Left side specific: this number is the left strut only, valved and fitted for the left mounting position, not a universal strut for either side.
- Restores lid support: brings back full lift assistance so the rear lid opens fully and stays open without being held by hand.
- Controlled closing: correct gas pressure gives the smooth, damped movement the factory intended, instead of a lid that slams or sags.

Installation Position & Fitment Notes
This strut installs on the left side of the rear lid, between the body and the lid hinge area. Support the lid securely with a prop or a second person before releasing any strut, because the lid is heavy and will fall once a strut is detached. Release the retaining clips, swap the strut like for like, and check the right strut too, as struts of the same age usually weaken together.

Brand: Porsche. Type: rear lid gas pressure strut, left side. Condition: brand-new genuine OEM part, supplied exactly as the factory produces it.

This listing includes one (1) Genuine Porsche Rear Lid Gas Strut, LEFT, OE part number 95551255007A. The right side strut, the separate rear window struts and any clips or trim are not included unless listed separately.
Installation Requirements
Fitting is a trim and clip job that a qualified technician can complete with basic tools, but the rear lid must be safely supported throughout.

|---|---|---|

Technician's Advisory: This number is the LEFT rear lid strut only, diagram group 803-05 rear deck lid. It is for cars without a power hatch. Always support the rear lid before removing a strut, and consider renewing the opposite strut at the same time, because a new strut beside a weak one can twist the lid and overload the fresh part.
Important: This genuine Porsche part is listed by OE part number 95551255007A (catalogue number 95551255007). Exact compatibility depends on the model, variant, production date and equipment level. Send your complete VIN to the European Autospares parts team and we will verify this is the correct part for your vehicle.
FAQs
xFrequently Asked Questions
Yes. This is a genuine Porsche rear lid gas-filled strut, catalogue number 95551255007, supplied as original equipment to Porsche factory specification. The listing number carries a final A, but factory and specialist catalogues list the same left side strut under 95551255007 for Cayenne cars from 2007 to 2010.
This strut fits the LEFT side of the rear lid only. The product title does not state a side, but the factory rear deck lid diagram lists 95551255007 as gas-filled strut, L. Order the matching right side application separately if both struts are weak, and confirm by VIN first.
The classic signs are a rear lid that will not stay open, slowly sinks after lifting, feels unusually heavy, or drops and slams shut. Gas struts lose pressure gradually with age and heat, so a Cayenne of this age on its original struts is very likely to need renewal.
No. Listings for 95551255007 specify cars without the power hatch option. Power hatch cars use a different lid drive arrangement, so this manual gas strut is not the correct part for them. Send us your VIN and hatch type before ordering and we will verify the correct strut for your Cayenne.
This brand new genuine Porsche part is covered against manufacturing defects, and your statutory consumer rights apply in the UAE. If the part arrives damaged or is incorrect due to our error, we will replace or refund it. Please confirm fitment by VIN before ordering to avoid return delays.
