hi, has anyone else seen the following problem - 2011 V70 D5?

When I open the boot with the button, it only opens a short distance - I can get it open all the way through repeated pressing of the button (or manually).

When I try to close - it usually goes down and then bounces up without closing.

However - did experiment to see what happens with engine on (to check for voltage issue) - and closing operation seems to work OK with engine on, but opening still seems much the same ...

Took it to dealer, but they weren't able to diagnose - and don't to pay for expensive part replacement with no guarantee it would fix problem ...

Thanks in advance for any insights!
