On the 300D, there were lot's of gunk in the lock mechanism. The key turned but pushing in the button at different angles did not open the trunk. The vacuum element was fine but because of the gunk, the rod did not move far enough to engage. I came very close to drilling but was able to get in via the first aid kit. I took the lock out, cleaned and lubed and it has been working fine with key and vacuum ever since.
On the 240D the key would not turn the lock and there is no movement in the vacuum lock. I have not looked into why.
