The Vauxhall Mokka uses a gas strut to hold the bonnet open rather than a traditional stay rod, so bonnet struts are a genuine part on this model. There is one strut, typically mounted on the driver's side (OS), and it is a standard fitment across the range regardless of engine or trim.
The original Vauxhall Mokka (first generation, produced from 2012 to 2016) received a facelift in 2016, and the pre-facelift and facelift cars share the same basic bonnet and front-end structure, making a strut swap appear straightforward. That said, you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying, as minor changes at the facelift boundary can sometimes affect fitment in ways that are not immediately obvious.
The original Mokka ran from 2012 through to around 2016, with a lightly facelifted version sold as the Mokka X from approximately 2016 onward until the model was replaced; your 2017 car is therefore the Mokka X facelift variant of the first generation. When sourcing a used strut, confirm with the breaker that the part is listed against your specific registration, as the Mokka X facelift is the correct reference point for your car.
Trim level does not affect bonnet strut fitment - the strut is a mechanical component shared across SE, Active, Design, and Elite trims within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as minor paint or bracket finish between cars, but these do not affect whether the strut will function correctly on your vehicle.
No - the bonnet strut is part of the front bodyshell structure and is not specific to any engine type or drivetrain configuration, so petrol, diesel, and four-wheel-drive variants all use the same strut within a given model generation. You do not need to filter your search by engine or 4WD when asking a breaker for this part.
No - the second-generation Mokka launched in 2021 on an entirely new platform shared with the Peugeot 2008, with a completely different bonnet and front-end design, so parts from that car are not compatible with the first-generation Mokka or Mokka X. Make sure you specify to the breaker that you need a part from a first-generation Mokka (2012-2016) or Mokka X (2016-2019 approximately) to match your vehicle.
