    reported similar prob to my dealer they say they replaced the button on the boot lid under warranty but this doesn't make sense as i could hear the mechanism try to open surely it would have been the mechanism itself anyway prob solved

We had a similar problem with a 2008 right hand drive 407;ST HDI Touring. Suddenly the remote would not lock the doors and whenever you drove over 20kph then back under it would keep trying to lock itself. Anyhow after a thorough reading of the manual we discovered that the car will only lock if all the doors are closed properly. What we didn't realise is that the glass panel in the boot lid will also open outward like a flap, to allow smaller parcels to be placed in the boot without having to open the larger boot lid. We owned a Mercedes 300TE which didn't have this feature so didn't think to look for it. This was not closed properly. The handle/release must have been knocked when washing the car. Anyhow, once it was firmly shut everything went back to normal. Good as new.

read your manuel, there are 3 different locations the key can be removed from and this eliminates theft if valet is used. when removed in a certain clock position, I don't remember which one but I had to look it up it locks

SOURCE: Central locking on bmw 318i boot won't lock after pressing lock button?

simple your mechanism on the inside of the boot(catch mech) is spring loaded.just spray copious amounts of wd40 deep inside. if that dosent work then your catch/keep is twisted.

SOURCE: Boot lid will not open except by use of key

Removed lock solenoid actuator and tested off vehicle, cleaned up terminals and pulled some fuses and relays cleaning wherever I thought necessary, also cleaned locking rod at filler cap with maintenance spray and lubricated mechanism inside boot underneath filler area. Both items now working but still not sure what the cause was.Suspect dirty terminals but these were not readily apparent

I have a Polo 1.6 Comfortline. When I unlock the boot it wont open, I can hear a noise but won't open. Could it just be a fuse

If you hear a noise that means that the electronic solenoid is operating, so it isn't the fuse. You do have power going to it. It appears that it is a common issue. One way that often works is to have someone in the car and someone at the boot. The boot person presses down and on 3,2,1, the car person presses the button and the boot person jerks the boot up.

Peugeot 407 06 sw front driver's door open (fault)

This will save you loads of money and stress ok. Been using this simple solution for about 18 months and still working. On your lock bar (not door lock) but the u shaped bar that the lock latches onto! on pillow of car. Don't laugh ok ha ha ! just rap electrical tape around bar a few times to make it thicker. You might have to experiment by adding or taking layer of tape off. your door should lock ok and door sensor fault will not appear. "YES" its as simple as that ! Tape will wear but its a 2 minute job to redo and the estimated cost will be 50p lol. three garages told me I need new lock fitted and then the thinking light bulb shon so brite! Hope this works matey, good luck. Gaz from Newcastle on Tyne.
