How to Open the Trunk of an Older Volkswagen Bora?

[WilliamDella]

The Volkswagen Bora trunk can be opened in the following ways: 1. Press and hold the trunk button on the remote key to open it. 2. There is a switch on the driver's door that can also be used to open the trunk. The functions of the car trunk include: 1. A fully equipped tool kit: The trunk contains a spare tire, jack, headlight tools, warning triangle, first aid kit, etc. Generally, these are standard equipment in cars, but many models may not have them all. 2. Luggage storage net: While driving, you might encounter the problem of small, fragile items being hard to place. Even if arranged neatly, they may get disorganized or damaged by bumps. With a luggage storage net in the trunk, these concerns are eliminated.

When driving my old Volkswagen Bora, I'm used to operating the trunk directly with the remote key fob button—just a gentle press easily pops it open. If the remote isn't available or the battery dies, locate the mechanical keyhole near the rear emblem, insert the physical key, and give it a twist to unlock. Inside the car, there's also a convenient feature: a lever beside the driver’s seat or on the door panel—pull it to automatically release the trunk. However, keep in mind that older car locks are prone to rust or jamming. If it won’t open, try wiggling the key or checking the key battery’s lifespan. Regularly applying lubricant to the keyhole prevents rust and ensures smooth trunk operation.

Operating the trunk of the old Volkswagen Bora is quite simple. Most of the time, you can open it with one click by pressing the trunk button on the car key. If the remote doesn't respond or fails, look for the small lever or button on the side of the driver's seat and pull it to unlock. There's also a backup keyhole on the exterior trunk lid where you can insert the mechanical key and turn it to open. If it still doesn't work, it might be due to circuit issues or aging lock mechanisms. It's recommended to first check the fuse or replace the key battery to avoid wasting time in the parking lot. For older cars, paying attention to these small details in daily maintenance can save a lot of hassle.

The most direct way to open the trunk of an old Volkswagen Bora is to press the button on the car key, which I often do. There's also a manual switch inside the car, usually located near the driver's door or the floor—just pull it. The trunk lid itself has a keyhole; inserting the key and turning it will do the trick. This old car design is reliable, but the lock may loosen or get stuck over time. Simply wiping off the dust will help. It's a straightforward operation, perfect for those in a hurry.
