B class 5 door

[Tangerine army]

I have a 2009 B170 Sport Hatch

Now that winter is here, every time we get a frost the rear hatch lock freezes and I can not open the hatch. Asked the local dealer and they just said we have had a lot of calls about locks, nothing we can do about it.

Has anybody got any ideas.

Lots of lubrication in & around the lock ....... something better than WD40 though

IIRC tgere was a thread about this latley, someone mentioned a lubricant that doesnt freeze. Try a search.

...., someone mentioned a lubricant that doesnt freeze. .....

Didn't see the thread, but chain lub from a can via a straw would be my choice.
