Default Audi A4 Avant rear hatch jams when hot

My Audi A4 Avant 04 plate

When the sun is on the rear end and it gats hot I cannot open the lid . Its
seems as if its jaming the central locking system. The rest of the doors
unlock ok and are not effected.


Anybody had the same experience

Regards
Malcolm

I would guess the door fit is not ideal and the heat causes the door
to expand and jam. It may just be a case of adjusting the hinges. If
you bought it from a dealer recently they should fix this FoC IMHO.
