Post subject:  Hatch lift chatter

I'm getting the last few things dialed in. My electric hatch lift does the job, but complains along the way. Worse at a couple of spots. I greased the drive, but still doing it. Any ideas?

See if you can turn the inner shaft 180* + running it up and down a few times with heavy grease seemed to have helped remove most of the chatter.

Also on some models there may be a zerk grease fitting down on the electric motor area that could use a few pumps. Sometimes it's hard to see down there as it's usually on the back side if it's there.

Good luck. :)

Good idea on the inner shaft. Maybe I got it 180 out when I disconnected it to re-do the hatch foam. It was operating smoothly before that.

I did grease the zerk, but no fix...
