You can also try replacing the boot struts, easy to access and relatively cheap and will give it a bit more spring - often its enough to help a tired motor cope with age

couple things - can the clutch [inside the motor mechanism] be replaced? If so, what is the correct part no. and could it be ordered?

In the meantime i will try the trick with violin resin and see how it goes

Only bodge it or replace the whole unit, they don't sell bits for it.

The other thing worth trying is make sure the hinges are lubed and free moving.

Also there is reports of the hinges getting bent/distorted so worth having a good look over it all before you go splashing cash on a replacement.

It would be very easy to replace the clutch, IF Audi sold the parts... but they don't. I've done a few of these and I'm yet to see a "tired" motor, it's always been the clutch slipping.

I fixed mine with violin rosin for about a year and 10k miles ago, still working fine. If it stops working I'll just do it again, it's a 20 minute job after you've done it once

need to find some time to take mine off for closer inspection but if violin rosin is the fix [albeit short-med term] i'll be doing Pavarotti all day long ...

something i've done today was to remove extra load [tools kit] from the boot, Oiled the same properly and it works much better now. What does occasionaly work though is opening from the remote or via driver's door switch.

More to follow...

I just didn't say which weekend...

One of these fitted on each side of the boot lid by dealer as a fix.
