Hi Everyone,

I hope that you are all well. Been a long time since I've been on here!

I'm having a bit of a strange issue that I haven't been able to find any information on.

Up until about 2 hours ago I was able to open my trunk from the trunk release and the trunk would raise up and stay raised up. After a 25 minute drive back home, when I re-opened the trunk lid again at the trunk release, the trunk would not stay "locked" in it's open position.

After a few seconds the lid would gently start to fall back towards it's close position before slamming shut. Not very safe!

Any thoughts on whether this is a fuse issue? Or is this to do with the gas cylinders?

I had the car totally stripped out and resprayed in Speed Yellow (from stock white!) a couple of months ago. This may just be a potential issue from that work.

You're thoughts would be much appreciated!

Regards,

Omar
