Boot lid wont stay open by itself

Postby 777jet » Sat Nov 24, 2012 6:48 pm

Hi All, I have a 54 Privilege and for some reason the boot wont stay open now and feels very heavy so I have to have someone hold it open for me while getting stuff out of it
The roof opens and closes fine, but cant understand why this issue has just started?
Is it the hydraulic strutts that holds the boot open or something else?
Appreciate any advice given
Thanks
