19.) Don't forget to replace the one screw you removed from the top panel (I did!) before replacing the lower panels.
20.) The front upper edge of the lower panel snaps into place, then lift the back edge (toward the front of the car) and secure one screw to hold it in place. Then just button up the rest!
Again I want to thank Crossbow 39 for his help. I think it has accurately been determined in this forum that this assembly is the problem, not just the tumblers, or lubrication. The only problem I have now is the BAS ESP light is on. Apparently when the battery is disconnected it sets the light. If you refer to page 135 of your manual it tells you how to reset ( re synchronize it)
Hi,
Nice write -up. Only problem is I can't open the pictures. I am using an Apple computer. Safari can't open them and when I use Google Chrome, it won't open either. Any Ideas?
