I have had a look through the forum but can't find an answer to my problem with the automatic boot (though I have solved the leaking washer bottle and will have to replace the headlight washers now!).

My A6 Avant (2011) has the automatic boot opening which works well but struggles with the last 6 inches or so to fully opening. I can push it the last bit and it stays there. Question is can I repair this minor fault with new gas struts or is it more tricky? The struts are looking corroded and I thought this was the first port of call.

Thanks for the help.
