What are the Hood Lift Support Shocks all about?

Hood lift support shocks are energy storage devices that work by means of compressing gas in a cylinder. When they’re closed, energy is stored, and when they’re opened, energy is released. You might think of them as shock absorbers or struts, but this is erroneous. Shocks absorb energy and do not release it.

Almost all vehicles use pneumatic struts to hold up the hood. They’re filled with inert gas that hold structures open. The lift supports store the energy when closed, and when they open, the energy is released. If the hood lift supports are weak or leaking, the hood may slowly close when opened or may slam down unexpectedly.

Keep in mind:

  • Any hood lift support will eventually fail.
  • Hood lift supports will operate more efficiently in warm temperatures than in cold ones.
  • Frequent use can cause failure of a hood lift support.

How it's done:

  • The vehicle's hood is opened and supported manually
  • The defective hood lift support shocks are removed
  • The new hood lift support shocks are installed
  • The hood manual support is removed
  • The repair is verified and the hood lift support shocks are tested for proper operation

Our recommendation:

You can extend the life of your hood lift shocks just by keeping them clean. Dirt and debris on the cylinder arm can nick the seal, causing a leak. If you’re experiencing problems with your hood lift support shocks, have one of our expert mechanics replace them.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Hood Lift Support Shocks?

  • Hood slams down unexpectedly
  • Hood slowly lowers when lifted

How important is this service?

It’s very important that your hood lift support shocks work properly as you don’t want to have your vehicle’s hood come crashing down on you. This is a problem that has happened to more backyard mechanics than we could recall. Have weak or failed hood lift support shocks replaced as soon as you can.

Mercedes-Benz E350 V6-3.5L - Engine is misfiring - Houston, Texas
I filed a warranty claim on a 2-week old repair that involved a complicated camshaft magnet timing system. Ben came the day after I made the request and he diagnosed the issue and replaced a part. The part itself did not perform very long and Ben returned and re-seated the part and the car runs great. This was a no-charge warranty repair. This man is so intuitive and has so much product knowledge it seems there is nothing he can't accomplish. I just put out a "recommend" for yourmechanic.com to my 5,000 Facebook friends. (I have never recommended any repair service before)

Mercedes-Benz E350 V6-3.5L - Brake Pads Replacement (Front) - Irving, Texas
This was my first time using this service and was not sure what to expect. I booked Carlos to change my front brake pads and was going to have him change the back brake pads as well since I already purchased the parts. He came out and checked my entire brake system and told me that I still had 80% left on the back brake pads and there was no reason to change it at this time, but the front pads should be changed. Carlos was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and honest. He cleaned up after he finished and it didnt look like he was even there after he was done. I will be purchasing a car in December and I will definitely be using Carlos for the pre-inspection. This guy is awesome, definitely recommend him!!!
