Trunk latch
I've been using my rear trunk much more in recent weeks. When opening the trunk the hatch still opens just fine.
Initally, there was a sequential sound; click-click. Now it's a click.........click, much slower. Is it a concern? It
latches and unlatches just peachy.
PS, an 07 coupe with about 10,000 miles
Thanks ahead of time.....

Shut it consistantly each time. On my Vert, I set it all the way down, then push down to lock it with my hand directly over the lock. I never drop the trunk. I do find it best to drop the hood about 12" to lock it.
Make sure nothing is interfering with the gaskets or hinge assembly. I'd clean and lub the lock assembly, too. Any recent installs?
