Hello Guys and Gals! In September 2018, I purchased a 2005 XLR with just over 12,000 miles. It is as close to new as I could get! I'm currently up to 22,000 miles and now have a trunk release problem - but only after I wash it. I have only hand washed this car since I have owned it. I don't use a pressure washer, just normal hose pressure. When I wash the car, and I try to open the trunk, the hydraulics try to open the lid, but the latch doesn't release. I have tried all of the ways to open it including from the keyfob, the trunk push button in the car, and the dash button. This also happens if I try the top down button. After sitting for 4 to 12 hours, the latch magically begins working again. So, I'm sure that water is getting into somewhere it doesn't belong. Has anyone had this happen and what was the cause?
Thanks!
