Sorry to hear, did you experience any of the symptoms I had leading up to this?
Some points:
Better to replace in pairs, 2 weeks after replacing the right, left failed as well, probably did not like the sitting on the bottom
It is a pain to get the compressor to work again when jack mode was activated (...)
Phaeton struts work just fine, easy to find on ebay (as well as the control arms for phaeton, original ones have 0000 on them anyway)
It seems to be a common problem, I found a german company selling DIY repair kits for these struts, that saves a lot of cash, happy to share the details.

+Duct tape, bailing wire, whatever it takes! Seriously though, I think there are different connotations of the term on our side of the pond.
