Damn, that sucks I was sure that would be the problem  :sad:

If its all free to move and lubed up what does the blue plastic pump/metal rod do when you lock/unlock the car then?

You said the pump makes a noise etc but the boot dusnt lock, if you look at the rod and the white plastic hook thing and get someone else so operate the central locking (or do it yourself as its remote?) what happens to the rod and white hooky thing? Because surely if it is moving freely as you say then it would have to lock?

He says he has sorted it mate ;)

Whipped the rear panel off and gave it the once over as per HARVS suggested and lathered it in WD40 just in case but all seems to be fine and well greased... But thanks for the tip...

Does not look like that to me? sounds like he tried my suggestion but everything was well greased and fine anyway so it had no effect?

I didn't watch it TBH I just locked the car and tried the lock and it was locked! whipped off the panel as said and gave it the once over and put it all back together and it was all working fine...

It's back playing up today.... But I put this down to the duff battery and I assume it's not giving out enough power to operate the pumps properly...

Had the trickle charger on since Sat Afternoon and with it now fully charged it seems to be working 100% as it should do!!

Get your batteries from Ecp in future and while you're at it you might be interested to know that "pukka" as used in your context is spelt "pukka", not "pucker" as this would be appropriate for arseholes and lips.

Don't matter where you buy it - its about getting a decent battery in the 1st inst.... A "Pukka" Bosch one for future note...

Thanks for the English lesson - but with being from up north I'll stick to the "Pukka" spelling as in Pukka Pies!!

I just had a look on google maps to confirm my thoughts, and Blackpool is further up than Sheffield  :nerd:

My bad, thought the 'working 100%' part was just about the battery  :embarassed:

Glad its sorted  :smiley:
