SL 550
trunk opens partially and closes

I just purchased a 2007 SL550. It has electronic trunk open/closer. when I pull the trunk release under the lip of the trunk it opens a bit and then closes again. if I hold it for a few seconds (mabe 1/4 to1/2 way open) it comes up and then continues to open. Is this normal operation? it seems a bit odd that I would have to hold the opener a few seconds before it continues to open. also the button on the door inside seems to open and close trunk just fine.

thanks!

Mine used to do that sometimes too, but I never figured out what it was either. I think it did it more when the car sat for awhile and the rear battery was low and needed charging.
