To replace the trunk gas springs on an Audi A4, open the trunk to access the hooks that secure the gas springs at both the lower and upper ends. Disconnect both hooks using a lever tool like a screwdriver.

Once the hooks are removed, slide the springs out of their housing and replace them with new parts. After inserting the new springs, reattach them with the hooks, ensuring everything functions correctly.
