automatic trunk only opens half way
 

hey guys,
i have the auto trunk open / close feature, just got my car back from the dealer few days ago and just noticed today that my trunk when opening - now only opens half way. i read a post about the e-class that had the same issue and they suggested to take the limiter off via the dash comp, however,on my s-class, i dont see such feature, any ideas? TIA

take back to dealership and have them take a look at it...

My S600 has had a few issues as well but I never took it into the dealership because the issue was intermittent and has not occurred for 15 months.

yeah i thought it might be a simple config in the dash computer, but i placed a call with the dealer to see what they can do. thanxs all.

automatic trunk closer
 

hey i was wondering does anyone here no about the automatic trunk closer in the s class. i want to install it on my 2000 s500 thanx

I see this **** all the time, trunk lid just needs to be normalized, take it into the dealer they have to do it with the star, shouldnt take more than a half hour

My 03 s500 did the same thing, I read the manual. Press and hold the trunk open button that's inside of the car for 5 or more seconds . That changes the settings of the trunk. I did that and it fixed my problem hope that helps.

thanks bballer,
yeah thats exactly what they did after i took it to the dealer. i should have read my manual.. thanxs again to all, and espcially bballer for the correct answer.
cheers

In my case this don`t solve the problem. You have done with the car started?

please help!

It would be nice if all of the guessing and take it to the dealership stuff could be replaced with actual information.

BBALLER’s answer did solve the OP’s problem and his information came from the car’s manual. What else do you want? It doesn’t get any more “actual information” than that.

The problem is that sometimes holding the button longer will not fix it and the car does need to be hooked up to the star computer
