I tried to work it around with my screwdriver, but with limited access, had limited success.Ĭlosed everything back up and the handle SEEMS to be working a little better, but I would really like to get that moulding right out and have a good hard look.Īny more assistance would be appreciated. The problem seems to be with the gold (looks gold?) lever arm that is connected to the exterior handle and activates the spring cap by sliding along it on an angle. I was also able to squeeze a long screwdriver under the moulding and activate the green spring cap. there is also a red plastic release button on the actual hitch mechanism. Wondering if anyone can explain what parts to flex to help me fully remove it.ĭespite this setback, I was able to observe all of the parts you described. It's a cold day today (below 0 degress), so I didn't want to force the moudling and risk cracking it. The main body of the moulding seems willing enough to unclip from the trunk, but the left and right sides are in there pretty tight and there's a centre section having to do with the centre brake light. 2) Unclip the wiring harness of the emergency trunk release button (just press in)ģ) Remove four metal screws at the bottom of the plastic moulding This is for the other amateur mechanics (like me) who are learning about their benzitos.ġ) Remove 6 or 7 plastic clips from the felt cover at the bottom of the hatch. However, I found that opening the hatch wasn't quite as simple as it sounded. I attempted to perform the same tests as you've described. Wanted to thank you for guiding us to the source of the problem.
