CODE: 830

Subject:
Rear Hatch Gas Spring

Application:
9000 CS





In the event that replacement of the rear hatch gas springs becomes necessary, it is suggested that they be mounted with the plunger pointed down and the connecting rod pointing up. This has shown to extend the life of the gas springs.

This will shortly be a running change in new car production.

Cars Affected:

All 9000 CS up to and including M93-1/2
