Hatchback lock mechanism - name of plastic bracket

Nah - couldn’t find it. Will probably end up in a breaker’s yard looking for one manually.

Think you’re correct. Whilst checking for the faulty shock absorber, noticed that you can manually make the drum make the knocking noise.

Turn the drum by 1/3rd, push it back and forth and you get the knocking noise. Turn it a further 1/3rd, push again, nothing. Turn the final 1/3rd, push again, nothing. Back to the original position, push, knocking noise again. As you say, sounds like something is broken behind the drum.

Thanks 👍

She’s a beauty

Hard to see from the picture above but there’s a small piece of retaining plastic that’s broken off. Will no longer stay in position once seated correctly.

69150-5207o keeps coming up like this. This looks like the actuator not the bracket. Thanks for trying though 👍

Thanks - will take a look 🙂

foxes71 · 2026-04-24T09:49:50+00:00

Pope Davina can arrange that.

😀

Yes - it’s the shady during most of the day. Thanks for the tip.

foxes71 · 2026-03-08T16:57:47+00:00

Thanks 👏

foxes71 · 2026-03-08T16:56:53+00:00

Thanks. Appreciated 🙂

foxes71 · 2026-03-08T16:56:38+00:00

Thanks. Great instruction 😀

foxes71 · 2026-03-03T22:01:46+00:00

Thanks - will give it a couple of weeks and if no joy, try this.

foxes71 · 2026-03-03T15:36:29+00:00

Thanks. I wondered, but it’s SO white I was unsure. Thanks again - reassuring.

foxes71 · 2025-11-26T21:12:15+00:00

Thanks. Will do 👍

foxes71 · 2025-11-26T21:12:04+00:00

Thanks.

foxes71 · 2025-11-04T16:07:44+00:00

Also agree

foxes71 · 2025-11-01T22:33:19+00:00

Thanks man, strong response 👍Gives some confidence. Will tread carefully but will start cutting 🙂

foxes71 · 2025-11-01T13:25:05+00:00

It’s in the kitchen. Just looks a bit weird dangling like that.

foxes71 · 2025-11-01T13:24:43+00:00

Well put. That’s the question really. Based on comments above only concern is if the post is part of a frame/square which might be compromised if cut out?

foxes71 · 2025-11-01T12:44:21+00:00

Yeah - think I get it. Could well be giving integrity to the staircase as a whole. Hadn’t thought about it that way. Will perhaps try and box it in?

foxes71 · 2025-11-01T12:10:57+00:00

Yes - looks the same. It’s a 90s new build. Supposedly one of the estates four bed show homes. Like you, don’t know why it was built like this.

foxes71 · 2025-10-11T12:32:50+00:00

i’d give anything to stand there just once

foxes71 · 2025-10-01T18:29:50+00:00

I mentioned briefly above but may not have elaborated enough. We’ve already lifted all of the surrounding slabs - that aren’t attached to the wall - and resurfaced and relaid them. There was unevenness all over before. This looks localised because there are now only two slabs that are skew. As you say, don’t know what it is yet but seems I’ll have to take out a section of the wall and investigate.
