Morning all,

 

I'm looking for boot struts for the Mk3 estate as one of mine has perished (just gone out of warranty). Can anyone advise on a part number as all I seem to find are mk2 ones?

5E9 827 550 C 01S assuming it isn't electric.

Thanks for that, I'll start looking. Not electric no.

I've hunted around with that number but no joy :(

Try just 5E9827550

I took that part no from the struts on my 2016 vRS estate

Brilliant, cheers. I assumed it would have been a different part from the mk2 Octavia. Obviously not :)

No worries.
