Nothing to do with stable door section not closing properly?

Re: problem with boot lid
A common problem with the boot lid coming unlatched is the failure of the microswitches or water ingress into the boot handle

Re: problem with boot lid
Its the bump stops that need adjusting. There are upgraded ones now available that are spring loaded rather than just rubber.
