Help! I've done something stupid! Boot won't open

Featured Replies

My boot wouldn't lock so I went about replacing the boot latch. Tested by opening and closing twice and was fine but on the 3rd test it wouldn't open with the fob or key. I assume the cable has popped out of the latch. What can I do apart from cutting a hole in the bootlid?

Pull the back seats forward and climb into the boot with a torch?

Have no idea if you can see anything when you're in there, as I've never done it ......

Not all Superbs have folding rears iirc...what about using the blade of the key in the boot lock?!

Fixed! I cut open the ski bag and opened the boot with an umbrella!
