Occasionally my hatch won't open have to lock and unlock the whole car a couple of times or even stop and start it.. (only happened 3 times I think in 18 months so haven't taken in for a check yet)

i have had a couple of times where my hatch won't open, i just figured it was me

 :neutral:

sometimes i try to open my drivers door a tad too quickly to, and the lock hasn't quite disengaged. not sure if that is bad for it. i'm trying to remember to let it unlock properly first.

Yeah, that's a bit odd that two stage unlocking.. must unlock the deadlock and then the lock.. Slower than any of my previous cars...
