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 ordered part had to be special ordered at my local dealer.

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.
