[Arnold Layne]

Hi

My 2007 S80 is so selfless, it just keeps on giving!

Now it’s my boot latch. Whenever I open the boot, as I raise the boot lid past a certain height, the electrical motor in the latch mechanism (I think) starts whirring, like it’s running constantly.

To be honest, that’s my best appraisal of the behaviour, I could be wrong, but this seems the logical explanation for this noise.

If I lower the boot lid a bit, the whirring noise stops. Then I raise the boot lid again and it doesn’t happen.

Has anyone had this issue before, and knows what the problem is please?

Thanks
