How long did it take to fix smartz rear window hatch?

The job took 10 minutes to complete although if you include two round trips to Smart Manchester and a brew then it’s taken all afternoon. Thank you again and a big shout to Sally Prunty at Mercedes as well for her help with returning one part and exchanging for another.

Why is the hatch not closing on my Smart Fortwo?

I have a 2008 smart ForTwo and yesterday I opened the rear window hatch/boot hatch remotely with the key. When I came to close the hatch the glass would not stay in place as if the catch wouldn’t take. I drove home with it closed but unlocked and liable to popping open.

Is there a way to lock the rear hatch?

I can only lock the car by leaning on the glass to fool the car into thinking the rear hatch is fully closed. I have tried WD40 in the mechanism and even opened up the tailgate panel for a nosey to no avail. Having trawlled the Internet for hours and hours I’m stuck.

How much does it cost to lock a smartz hatch?

The lock was £63 inc. VAT and the Servomotor I actually needed only £20.16 inc. VAT Firstly, thank you both for your support and answers. I greatly appreciate it. Secondly, I have it working!
