Remedy:
In order to minimize the amount of dirt entering the area of the load compartment sliding door cable track and to avoid damage to the cable track, a
foam section should be glued onto the load compartment sliding door (see attachment). The length of the foam section should be made to fit the
width of the load compartment sliding door.
^ Make sure that all foreign objects under the step are removed (vacuumed out). The cable track must be able to move properly.
^ Dirt and dust can also settle under the film on the floor panel below the cable track (see picture 10 and 11 in attachment). This area must also be
cleaned entirely.
It is not necessary to remove the door for this work!
Note:
The cable track must not be greased.
Check the setting of the lower sliding carriage and correct it if necessary.
