2013 Gallardo - Roof Stuff

[biondi]

Dammit, subject should read 'Roof Stuck'! Can't seem to edit that sorry.

Hi chaps,

2013 LP560-4, took the roof down earlier but when I came to put it back up it stuck after about an inch. Nothing I do makes it go back down or indeed come back up. Tried leaving it off for a while but it's just the same. On the dash is 'Warning, Soft top cannot be operated'.

So, looking at the manual, p.177 it provides instructions how to manually operate it. Step 1 is to release the hydraulic system, did this fine. Step 2 though (releasing the rear lock) appears to be different to that shown in the manual. The only hole I can see is at the very top of the rear grill and you can't get the tool in there as part of the rear panel obstructs it.

So, I'm a little lost. Anyone with a Spyder got any ideas?

Cheers,

Matt

Would you mind documented this with pictures?I've had the same problem on mine when it went for storage over the winter.Was fine the next day but that must be a sign of something not quite right.I've heard something about the latches becoming loose and needs adjusting.
