Genuine BMW hood strut set OEM 8402551 — this used set includes both left and right gas-filled struts from a donor X5. Also called shock absorber set, these replace worn units that can no longer hold the hood open on 2000–2006 X5 models equipped with 3.0L I6, 4.4L, 4.6L, or 4.8L V8 engines. When the struts lose pressure, the hood drops unexpectedly, making engine access difficult. This pair restores smooth, reliable support.
