Check the rubber stoppers under the tail panel. Also, try lowering the actual hatch motor. That's all I can think of right now.

Your car kind of looks naked. Just kidding my 90 does this also it is kind of intermitent. It does it sometimes sometimes not. The motor seems to be realy slow. I've owned mine since it was new and can tell the difference, it used to pull down faster and harder. Now it seems like it is laboring.

definately talk to Lon at TDS you tell him what it's doing and he'll tell you what you need. Cause new complete pulldowns arent cheap. Changing just a gear or motor is alot cheaper. He carries all the parts to repair them I'm pretty sure.
btw his name on TGO is lonsal so pm him or email him whatever. hell he might even respond to the thread.
