spikedjack Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Same with mine. I hope new boot rubbers will sort it out as they need doing anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Facelift cars have a problem with the remote boot release. The only fix I have heard of is fitting one from a non facelift car. I found mine released better without the stock spoiler on, but still wont release all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_cbr Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 it that just a non facelift catch in the boot or the whole cable ? spoilers never comeing off mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I was told it was the mechanism in the boot that needed replacing. I wonder if the catch itself on the boot lid might be different. Certainly worth looking in to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazil Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Same with mine. I hope new boot rubbers will sort it out as they need doing anyway I have new boot rubbers and new OEM gas strut to be replaced soon, I bet though Branners is on to something and I will end up having the same problems....

spikedjack Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 It's such a pain and winds me up no end. My reasoning is that it just doesn't pop up enough and stays on the catch, new rubbers would make it harder to close in effect forcing it up so fingers crossed!

Brazil Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Pm Ed "SupraStar 3000" for advice he is an expert in this area... Yes, I believe that he has a very detail thread on this subject but better cancel the rest of the day since there's quite a few pages..!
