Hello. We have a big problem with the drop down bed in our Fiat Rapido. It had been making horrendous noises on lowering and raising and getting heavier to lift up to closed position. Eventually one of the gas struts failed ,locking in the extended position. So we changed both struts hoping this would sort the problem. However unfortunately it has not. Although it's very slightly easier to lift up its still very heavy. Also when down it literally drops down to rest on the steering wheel top, so obviously not correct. Also when lifting it up it becomes unbalanced and tilts towards the windscreen, so all in all unusable. Any ideas please? Is it the mechanism?
