Up nice and early to do 9 holes before work, car already packed the night before....

Get to the course and aaaaaagh boot won't open. Skip that idea then and go to work instead.

Anyone know how to open it? Note it's an S1/2 with manual release not electric.

Thanks

Another quick tip - if the boot is full, sometimes the solenoid will release but something catches on the strut and effectively holds to boot shut. Also happens on mine in really cold weather, damm thing refuses to open sometimes. My side of the road toolkit now includes a softish kitchen spatula to lever open the boot without scrtaching the paint..

Please email details like this rather than post them on the net. I know most scum would just use a crowbar, but no point in tempting fate is there.
