Citroen Saxo S0 / S1 Tailgate Boot Gas Strut
Please compare 9639168380 with the number on your existing component and verify vehicle compatibility before purchase. Vehicle registration and automated compatibility dropdowns should not be used as the sole basis for ordering.
What You Are Buying
This listing is for a previously used Citroen Saxo boot/tailgate gas strut / boot lid lift support, identified by manufacturer part number 9639168380.
The component is installed at the rear tailgate and assists the opening movement and supports the weight of the boot lid when raised. A correctly functioning lift support helps prevent a tailgate from dropping unexpectedly and makes normal boot access considerably easier.
The source listing specifies a black stainless-steel component. As this is a used automotive part, normal age-related cosmetic marks may be present. Buyers should inspect all listing photographs before ordering.
Original factory components were engineered around the vehicle's production specification, mounting arrangement and operating requirements. A quality recycled factory component can therefore be an excellent alternative to low-cost reproduction parts of unknown specification.
Depending on the component and current new-part pricing, purchasing premium recycled parts can deliver savings of up to 70% compared with buying brand new.
Verified Source Compatibility Data
The compatibility below reproduces the vehicle specification established by the source listing. It is deliberately NOT being expanded to other engines, body variants or similar-looking models without manufacturer-level verification.
| Make | Model | Years Shown | Chassis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Citroen | Saxo | 1996-2004 | S0 / S1 |
| Fuel | Engine | Engine Code | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Petrol | 1587cc / 1.6 | NFX (TU5JP4) | 88 kW / 120 HP |
| Part Type | MPN | Vehicle Location |
|---|---|---|
| Boot Lid Lift Support / Gas Strut | 9639168380 | Rear Tailgate |
3-Door / 5-Door Buyers — Read Before Ordering
The source data supplied for this listing does not independently establish 3-door versus 5-door interchangeability for this component. We therefore will not guess.
Compare the listing photographs, mounting points and the exact stamped number 9639168380. Where any doubt remains, contact us through eBay before ordering with your 17-character VIN so compatibility can be checked against vehicle-specific information where available.
Technical Mounting Reference
The gas strut is positioned between the vehicle body and rear tailgate assembly. Its purpose is mechanical load assistance: compressed gas within the support generates extension force to assist raising and holding the tailgate.
This is therefore a mechanical tailgate support component. It does not electronically command the engine, transmission, braking or vehicle management systems.
Will Not Fit / Exclusion Control
This listing should NOT be treated as confirmed fitment for:
- Vehicles carrying a different gas-strut part number.
- Vehicles whose mounting points differ from the photographed item.
- Other Citroen models merely because the component looks similar.
- Peugeot or other PSA applications without verified cross-reference.
- Different engine/body combinations not established by the listing data.
- 3-door or 5-door interchangeability unless independently verified.
- Production changes or replacement-number supersessions unless verified.
Similar appearance does not prove interchangeability. If your existing stamped number differs from 9639168380, contact THEPARTPILOT through eBay before purchase rather than assuming compatibility.
Installation Guide
Typical Tools
- Suitable tailgate support / second person
- Small flat-blade screwdriver or trim tool
- Protective gloves
- Eye protection
- Suitable hand tools if the mounting arrangement requires them
Typical Procedure
- Park safely on level ground and switch the vehicle off.
- Open the tailgate fully.
- Securely support the tailgate independently. Never rely on a weak gas strut while working beneath the boot lid.
- Inspect the upper and lower attachment arrangements.
- Carefully release the retaining clip/fastener as applicable without completely removing parts unnecessarily.
- Disconnect the old support while controlling the tailgate.
- Compare mounting points and overall configuration.
- Install the replacement support into the correct mounting points.
- Confirm all clips/retainers are fully seated.
- Remove the temporary tailgate support carefully and test the opening/closing movement while standing clear.
Typical estimated workshop time: approximately 0.5 hour, subject to corrosion, damaged fixings, mounting condition and workshop assessment.
Professional fitting is also available directly at our repair facility, subject to availability. Please contact THEPARTPILOT through eBay before travelling.
