Hey, I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but my trunk will not close properly.

If you try to close it normally it just hits anf bounces back up. I noticed the sheet metal actually vibrate when this happens. If I try slamming it, by pushing down in the right spot it will close.

I have already done checked this out and tried to adjust the latch, but it hasn't really done anything, and it does not appear to be misaligned. So I am thinking the latch itself is the issue, maybe it is too stiff etc. Is this fixable, or is it worth trying to get another latch from the junkyard.

Thanks

hey, i have the same problem, and i have been told by a heap of people that there is nothing we can do about it, try closing it softly then lifting it up a little then shutting it hard, doesnt make as much noise as slamming it, its caused by people slamming it,

hope that helps,
best of luck though
