It may be folding incorrectly, or they may be something jamming it, has it ever worked correctly
Do you know anyone local with a zed an can look at the 2 side by side

Hi many thanks for your reply, yes it used to work correctly, up until the end of last summer. I have tried opening it manually and it jams in exactly the same place. I didn't know of another zed owner. I think I will have to take it to a bmw specialist.

My e85 did this & I discovered mrs Smartbear had left a couple of books on the parcel shelf which jammed things up nicely. Have a good look around that area
