Hi guys my rear hatch rattles/knocks when cold,can anyone tell me if you can adjust the rear lock as it goes away when you open it..Any ideas .. :?
 
People often adjust the rubber bungs each side to stop noises to make the lid close properly .. what this actually does is raise the hatch off the center rubber stop .. its half way up the pillar .. large block .. you can't miss it .

This makes the hatch bounce on this block over bumps .

You need to wind in the rubber bungs each side , remove the panels and lower the lock .. you then wind out the bungs to add pressure to the lid but not so much as it lifts it away from the center rubber blocks .

This has been an issue from day 1 shall we say and that's the fix .

Basically .. lower the lock assembly .
 
Thanks mate will try that ..So is this a common fault..Cheers :)
