Roof catch not quite catching

Just got a small problem with one of my roof catches - it closes the roof fine but it doesnt lock into place and require the button to be pressed to release it like it does on the other side, which means it can come loose quite easily. I’ve tried playing with the little adjuster which i’ve seen is to help the seals compensate for temperature etc but this doesnt help it lock in properly. Is there anything else i can adjust or will i need a new catch?

Thanks [:)]

Damn, pipped at the post!

Wow thanks, looks perfect, will give this a try now.

Ok, did what it says in the guide, i made it as good as i could, and it does catch better now than it did but still not as solidly as the other one. Should last a while and if it gets too loose again then i guess it’s time to shell out for a new catch… [:)]

Thanks for the link

Hi hello
Any chance you could relink this? Every time i try it goes back to the home page for logging in(?) and or perhaps copy the fix.
Thanks in advance

Try this link, the other one was posted in 2009!

Brilliant!
Many thanks for your time
Ian
