I don't know how the 4 door setup is, but my hatch had the same problem. Originally posted by frozen_Joth. My trunk does the same thing, lemme know if you fix it. I got new struts and it does the same thing.
It was hard to lift open and it would never stay up properly. I have no clue as to why it just won't stay up. This is really annoying now. Supposedly the trunk was opened quickly in freezing weather. I really want to know if there is a solution since I dont like having it not stay open. If not then you might want to check into that. Believe it or not the spoiler does make a BIG difference. Ohh how I longed for a coupe. I need some information on how to remove it. My trunk never stays up. My trunk won't stay up and back. Curious about this too. Oh missed that:P. I looked at those bar things.
It's hard to ask around for sedan specific stuff. You'll find the same type of "bumper stops" under your hood. Use a golfclub, preferably a driver, its a perfect fit.
Kinda like the 94-95 Accords. Check for breaks, bends, or to see if they have come disconnected on either side of the bars. Check the little plastic springs that pop out on the trunk lid-they may be stuck "in" or broken. Just a guess, no guarantee... Gas strut.
That's my problem i guess if there aren't any. I used it to slim-jim the lock because I locked my only key inside, I used it to run the amp wiring through the gromets in the engine bay, and I used it to support the trunk lid LOL. But at the same time, the trunk doesn't feel like it has any resistance whatsoever. Looking for: Jeep Comanche Sport Truck 4. My trunk won't stay up late. Overload will be sensed, and it will close. Then, stop helping... I will get the link from my friend who did it to his car. Then they would collapse under the weight of the trunk. The best solution is to go to Acura, let them look at it, and have them replace the shocks (or whatever is broken). Lubricate them and make sure that the ejector button doesn't get have enough strength to POP up the hood (and the trunk): There's one on each side of the engine are located on the rail support on each side (and not on the hood itself like the trunk): Become a BMW CCA member! As long as you have not "shot off" the bottom spring retaining can do this.
There are springs that hold those arms up, sometimes they are located behind the seats, up under the glass. Originally Posted by Cartuner11. I thought u disappeared for a while.

As all of the oil had drained through the seals the shock lacked lubrication and made it really difficult to lift. Most likely your hatch struts blew. As seabeach740 said you need to look at the bumper stops and if at least one is not springy then twist them out and investigate. Don't look for springs - there are "bumper stops" that get stuck in the down position that you need to find. 2001 Integra GSR-T, 300 whp - Sold 1/11/2006 You will be missed.
If you have a spoiler doesnt that sometimes weigh down the trunk? Plus, our rear decklid acts as a factory rear strut tower brace!

Sometimes the Shocks just get worn out. One side is attached to the little post that sticks out from the curve in the hinge, and the other is attached to some kind of plastic clip up in the corner of the trunk. Easy to replace, but you might be able to fix them for a while by just lubricating them. Now it pops open nicely. I noticed the new popper seems quite a bit stiffer than the others. Get in, Sit down, Shut up, and Hang on!!! They had the hood ones in stock but not the trunk ones. I'm not sure how the 4 doors are. Please register, spot, and help the project. That should solve the problem.
But i'm happy with my 4-door. Results 1 to 25 of 29. I wanna install struts to keep the trunk up. As the trunklid raises, these bars rotate and put some tension on the trunklid, keeping it raised. I'd really be interested in that. Guess i need to order another one. SHIFT_ IMissmyHonduuuh. These get dirty, break, and just don't spring back up after a while if you don't keep them clean & lubricated.
