boot lid button not working
« on: 02 May 2011, 21:18:10 »

Hello again, the button on the dash to open the boot is not working, but you can open the boot using the remote key fob, I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem? and is there a fix for this without taking the car to a Vaux dealership? Thanks in advance.  :y

Some peeps inc me tie a piece of string around the release handle in the boot, then loop it over the cap on top of the rear shock so that you can open it from the back seats, should a situation ever arise where you need to (battery flat and key fob don't work), advantage of the string is that you can get it open even when the boot is full  :y
