Now when I either use the lever in the car or try and pop the boot with the remote on the key it won't pop open. If I stand at the back of the car and press the button and lift the boot it will open, so the catch is releasing.
It took a while to occur to me that this problem has to do with me putting an STi boot lid spoiler on the car.
The spoiler weighs bugger all, but are these springs so finely tuned that this amount of weight makes all the difference?
I assume the TBSTI came with stronger boot springs to allow for the extra spoiler weight?
The boot springs in my spec b are colour coded to the car,so is this this the case with the TBSTi or are they a different colour?
Obviously the best solution to this problem would be to chase up some stronger springs from Subaru, but I wanted to check to see if that was the case first. Any part numbers would be appreciated.
