Just bought my first Mini this weekend, picked up an 06 S, with 42,000 in pepper white, lovelove it so far. Has anyone run into an issue with the sensor for the trunk? I'mean making sure it is closed all the way, with no obstruction, but when I'm starting, or really getting on the gas, the trunk/hood light comes on, along with the interior "dome" light. Anyone run into this before, and any easy fix I'm missing?

 

Its the sensor itself. Check the hood one also. 61311480861 & 61319119052

Trunk:






Also just make sure you shut the trunk a little harder , the lid and the seam should be flush with the rear quarter panel.
