Bringing this thread back from the dead. The issues went away for a while after winter so I figured it was the cold weather but now its the middle of summer and it came back. The trunk does not close every single time I open it. Unreal
Can someone verify that the new update trunk latch design has a part number of 4F5-827-505-D
Thanks

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.

Common problem, replace the latch or have your dealer do it. I got mine from genuineaudiparts.com and it took ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO REPLACE.
