Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

There might be some tiny bit of adjustment as the holes the fasteners fit into are larger in diameter than the fasteners (obviously) but adjusting the thing and making it better might be tricky.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can adjustments be made so the secondary striker makes better contact. My solenoid seems to working. Inside safety handle activates it. Just can't a proper close. If no adjustment cab be made does anyone know the appropriate part #? I did have to open using the loop I placed in the tow hook opening Any and all thoughts appreciated. Thx

POST 2Original post

Front lid latch on my Boxster is getting bad. The sill switch activates the solenoid and I hear the thing unlatch but the leading edge of the lid barely rises. I can just get my finger tips under the leading edge of the lid enough to work the safety catch and open the lid. Closing the lid requires I put considerable force on the lid right where the latch is. If one pushes anywhere else this can bend the lid and could affect the latch function. (The lid can look a bit like a large potato chip under severe cases.) The lid should never be slammed shut. Anyhow, if there is an adjustment I'm not aware of any. The techs tell me the latches wear out and they replace them when this happens. (My car has over 290K miles and both lids have had their struts replaced, they wore out to the point they would not support the lids.) There might be some tiny bit of adjustment as the holes the fasteners fit into are larger in diameter than the fasteners (obviously) but adjusting the thing and making it better might be tricky. And you could make it worse. There might be the chance you make it so the cable pull doesn't work/open the lid latch.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
