Will do!, so far good service over the phone.

Just wondering the age of your car mate and the mileage...I hear these are a ticking time bomb.

2007, only 28k on the clock. Not much motorway driving, spoiler hardly used.

Thats probably the problem. They have seized up over time or seals have dried up and caused the malfunction as I could imagine most of its life the car has been sitting still.

I usually put my spoiler up every trip just so its in constant usage.

You maybe right!, seals do dry out. Only mainly lift to dry after washing
 
Make sure the hydraulic rebuild service provides new microswitches on both hydraulic rams.
