chefey Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Having problems getting into boot. Button under tailgate will sometimes get it to open 1/4 ", as will release on suspension brace, any ideas to fix this, thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortPaul Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hi mate replace the pop up springs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefey Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hi Paul Can`t get that far, opens 1/4 inch to catch, then won`t open any further, even with interior cable pull, even pulling with fingers then clicking unlock on fob twice in succession. Any ideas? David 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortPaul Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hi buddy try pressing the release button above the registration plate and try to manually lift the boot lid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payco Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) There is an emergency boot release button under the rear strut brace buddy. As above it will only open 1/4 inch so you will need to put your hand under the lip, press the release button above the number plate and lift manually.

chefey Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 When it is up the 1/4 inch, it is like the bonnet before you release the catch, it is not just the weight, does that help any ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefey Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 Been in workshop manual, tells you all about the workings, but not what to do if you can`t get in. Starting to get frustrated. will try you tube vids, but ones I have seen so far don`t tell you. hmmphhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr v6 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Definitely do as ShirtPaul suggests. Lift whilst pressing the button. Could try the penny trick, although wasn't a good fix for me. I suggest https://www.opentop.fr/350z?lang=en if that's the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killick.z Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Pressing the button just raises it enough for me to grab and lift. It's been around 4 years and I don't know any different 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
