Boot Lock Issue

[sammi]

Hi I am sorry if this has been covered before.

I have a 2008 A3 TDI 170 and this last week I cannot for the life of me get the open boot picture off the MFD despite the boot actually being shut. Is this a common problem? is there an easy fix?

I am not sure if its connected but the past few nights the car alarm has been going off too.....

Appreciate any help

Thanks

Can no one offer any advice on this?

I'd say it's connected yeah!

I'm not sure how the boot circuit is completed TBH

I suspect it the old problem of the rear washer pipe leaking if you search there are lots of threasds on the subject
hope this helps
