Hiya,

I've had my Zed 3.0i a few months now and notice that the boot lid is very heavy. Is this normal or are my struts knackered??

Its a little heavy (if you are talking e89 as you've posted here). Struts will just hold it in place rather than raise it.

Assuming similar job to e85, 30 seconds to replace.

Yes, it only 'pops up' a few mm.
Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?
