My 2001 vw bora's trunk won't open. Lock turns and key works with other doors, however when I try to open the trunk, it makes a noise as though trying to open but remains shut. I have 2 baby car seats in the back and a large stroller in the boot, so the ''fold down back seat'' is not really an option. Any other ideas????
If you insert the key in the lock and turn it alittle further the boot should open.the noise you hear is the actuator moving,but the plastic rod to open the boot is probably brocken.

This is usually caused by broken plastic parts in the lock system. The best would be to verify and lub all locks and check out the elecrical. ------- kess v2
When you press the trunk open button, do you hear any "release" noise come from the trunk area? The issue may be a bad battery in the key fob OR there could be an issue with the transmitter located inside the vehicle. Do the doors lock and unlock properly? is the vehicle equipped with security or immobilizer? please advise
Lower the back seat and crawl into the trunk and see what the latch is doing when you activate the key fob. the trunk lid will have to be open to enable any repairs. Also an emergency release cable is probably visible (yellow handle) inside the trunk and will Open the trunk lid.
