The decklid, or engine lid, on a Porsche 911 uses two pressurized gas shocks to hold it open. Over time, gas leaks and the shocks become less effective of supporting the weight of the lid, more so if it has a large spoiler. Replace worn shocks with Genuine Porsche decklid shocks and avoid having to resort to a hood prop to hold the decklid open.
