Whilst it is painful to admit this effects car choice, the M35 has more leg room in the back for the kids and or kids seats

Interesting, I get what I thought was a low pitched vibration/groan that I thought was some sort of induction noise, worse when the access plate for the airbox is removed and a k&N in there, not sure if its the same thing or not?

Oops sorry, Double post, please delete!!

I would be interested in hearing if anyone else is getting a dump pipe and front pipe made up to fit an aftermarket exhaust. So there is a possibility Westside has a flange to fit?

Thanks, it would help the auto electrician, even if japanese.

Following on from a previous thread, I have had an auto electrician look at the wiring in the boot to try and fix the latch, and he has asked whether there is a wiring diagram in English to look at as there is quite a few electrical components running to the split rear gate as it is electric. Does anyone have a service manual with wiring diagrams or is there a place I could go to for it?

Thanks, it will latch so it doesn't come open, but the motor doesn't pull the boot tightly shut like it used to. I will give Northshore a call thanks, it is going in to the auto electricians to get look at tomorrow so I will let you know how it goes.

It seems that it might be the switch or sensor that tells the motor to take up the tension- the "door open" light on the dash is constantly on, and the boot courtesy light stays on as well as though the boot isn't shut properly. I may end up taking it to an auto electrician to have a look at the switch and sensor, a better option than having water leak into the boot I think. I haven't given it a really hard slam but a firm push doesn't seem to help, it latches with a gentle push, just wont take up the slack like it used to. The joys of an electric boot latch!

The electric boot latch will now "latch", but wont tighten after it initially closes- normally you hear a whirring sound as the motor tightens the hatch but not anymore. It still unlatches using the electric button though and you can hear the sound of it unlatching. The battery was replaced but not sure that has anything to do with it. Has anyone had the same problem, any suggestions for a solution?
