My boot lid is really difficult to shut. It takes 2 or 3 really hard slams to get it to shut. Not a big problem in the scheme of things, but irritating.

Anyone got any tips? I've tried lubricating the lock.

Ta. :?

A previous owner has probably alterd the catch so that it makes a better seal when shut to prevent water getting in.
