I tried the WD-40 in the lock trick and it worked like magic. Now my trunk opens every time no problem. I found one definite problem with the vacuum system a hose that is only in loosely but it won't go in any tighter so not really sure what to do.

Where is this located? Replacing the rubber connectors usually will help.

That is the red one. First thing to check is brake fluid level in the M/C.
