Hey evry1,
My boot lock is being a pain, i cant open it using the key for some reason it wont go in the lock anymore, iv tried WD40 in it but to no avail.
can i open it from inside the car? im hoping to strip the lock down and re assemble to see if that helps.
Cheers Guys and Gals

I think you should be able to climb in over the back seats, then remove the plastic plugs with a flat head screw driver, be gentle and just wiggle them out! then with the cover off you should be able to manually pull/push the rod to pop the boot. Not great with the other half standing in the rain waiting with the shopping :grin: but enough to get into.
good luck

You shouldn't have to pop the plastic trim to get at the mechanism, when my boot jammed whilst on holiday I just jabbed my finger at the release finger until it opened :tongue:

if it wont come off, hit it, and if it still wont come off, hit it harder :tongue:

precisely, although must have looked quite funny from outside - a 6'4 guy perched precariously across the front/rear seats of a golf jabbing his finger at something inside the boot :grin:
