Trunk latch problem

just had mine done. couldn't take it anymore. at a wedding, parked right in front of everyone, we had been asked to take some gifts home for the bride... and there I was, dressed to the nines, with a sparkling clean A6- and a friggin trunk that would not close. grrrr.
so, looking at my service invoice the part number is 4F5-827-505-D, this was just done 8/10 so I have to believe it is the most current.
now, I had this done under my CPO warranty, BUT, this winter when I first experienced the problem I purchased a latch that I kept in the car in case I got caught and the trunk would not close.
I still have this, and the part number matches.
haha bye, pm me if you want it. n/c.
this is so frustrating and annoying (and embarrassing) I'd be happy to help you out.

I am sad to report that I have just had my first instant of this problem early this morning. I went to take mom to the airport, opened the trunk, loaded her bags and then "wtf". I did not know what to make out of what was happening. Glad I checked in with you guys about this and will be ordering my new latch 4F5-827-505-D in a few minutes. Thanks, all...

Danm, some way to end the night... I will be going to a wedding soon and the last thing I want to see is some kid in a Scion close his trunk next to me and I can't.

Just got mines in yesterday from Genuinevwaudiparts and will be installing it this weekend. Looks like it is not too complex but we will see how it goes.
On a side note, I spoke with mom the other day and her flight back home was great. When I called she took the opportunity to jab me by saying that she was unloading her groceries, talking to me and just closed her CRV trunk with her elbow. I was like, ok ma' I will be taking care of it soon. So embarrasing

Yeah, I see by the service records that my 05 had the trunk latch replaced while under warranty.

I had this same problem about 6 years ago. Very common problem when it is cold. The dealer fixed it under warranty. Sorry but I can't recall exactly what they did.
