Hi guys
Again your awesome help is needed more than ever..
Now it is my trunk that messes up.. I dont know each time I repair something something else goes caput hahaha..
Ok is not a new car anymore but is also the only thing now is broken,, or that is sometimes it is broken...
The thing is the trunk can be opened several places.
1 with key insert twist and open, works always
2 with push button drivers site. Works sometimes not always
3 Key push button also works SOMETIMES not always
Before it always worked no problems then last week it started making issues..
It is like this,, when it doent work with the push button on the key and I got to add I can hear the click sound inside the car from the passanger side "Fusebox passangers side" but no sounds from Trunk Lock Actuator
Then if I cant open it with the push button I just use the key insert it twist left and the trunk opens, but I feel a bit force when turning it left..
Then I can close it again and the Key Push button works again,, I then to test tried closed it, open it, close it open it several times and it just works, then I leave it for an hour or until next day and damn the problem came back, I can then do the same procedure as above and same thing happen..
What is this? Is the Trunk Lock Actuator Damaged? DO I need to replace it or can it be a faulty wire? Perhaps just disasemble it and reasemble it? My experience is sometimes that can be enough..

I suspect that the actuator is dying. They do wear out. _________________
