My saloon boot lid just pops open a couple of inches when triggered. Is it supposed to open wide? If so I will replace with these.

Nope, yours is bang on Shack, assuming with virtually no effort it raises when you lift it, then naturally moves to the completely vertical position.

Yes, does that OK, but unlike you, I really love the auto boot opening feature on the new Mondeo Estate, and find it very useful.

I can almost understand it on a van like your Mondeo estate, but not really on a saloon

Find it very useful on the VW, but the boot lid on the VW feels like it's weighs nothing but the 3.2's feel like weighs a ton

Pisshat one is probably aluminium...

If your Omega bootlid feels heavy, the struts are probably tired.

My MV6 one was starting to need an element of effort to move from the popped position to about 45 degrees, where the struts did then lift to about 60 degrees.

As I never really use the boot, I did the honourable thing and ignored it.
