Hi there, I've scoured the forums looking for similar advice, but it doesn't seem to match any of the previous. 

 

My 2007 Fabia Estate, has decided to not align the boot lock with the latch. I've tried alignment with the plugs/sliders around the boot but to no avail. I've tried moving the latch up but even as high as it goes it misses the lock. I've looked at the lock but there's no movement to it. I've looked at the hinges but they're rock solid, with no visible sign of movement on the paintwork. I've looked under the rear lining to check the inside too but there's no play their either. I'm completely baffled and stuck with a boot that won't close. 

 

Has anyone come across this before and has any tips? 

 

Many thanks

I had it when someone had hit mine up the back, turned out that the back panel was distorted so I beat it with a big hammer and a wooden block until it would latch properly.
