Just let me check that I understand this:

1. The central locking works on the 'blipper' and opens the doors (and the fuel cap cover), but not the boot?
2. The key opens the door but not the boot?
3. Everything was OK a few days ago?
Now, point 1 can happen if a local leak occurs in the vacuum tubing. And point 2 can occur if the rod linkages are disconnected. I've had both of these happen, but not at the same time.
Can the central locking be operated by the door key? I'd be tempted to keep trying for a few days (after I'd called A8 Parts!) on the off-chance that it opened on one occasion.
