the car was fixed under warranty which was why it cost me nowt, but all the sparky did was open up the silver control box and re-fit the return spring that was stopping the flap from shutting fully. you may find that you have a very similar problem which should be fairly cheap to repair.

my thread was un-answered and in it is just the information that i have told you, i cant be sure if the control box parts are available but your problem may be exactly the same as mine, ie not needing parts.
