While we're talking about the trunk springs....
My S.II trunk/boot lid has been deformed from what appears to
be the spring mechanism over-extending and hanging as you try
to push the lid closed. It looks like the over-extension is a
result of wear. The bowing of the lid occurs around where the
spring arm attaches. Have others run into this? If so, has
anyone come up with a good fix?
Regards, Bob Douglas
