If I recall, I think the manual says not to use it at all, even to touch it, because it could loosen up the way it's attached or something. Crap I don't remember from back in December.

I don't "PUSH" on anything either. I hate when people lightly drop their hood then push latch it shut. Guy at the dealer did it to the Z he was trying to sell me and I cringed. Or when their door doesn't close all the way they push on it to close it. No no, not for me. I reopen then close it properly.

it's hard to grab just the edge of that hatch anyway. i rather not risk scratching the finish.
I totally agree. That's why I'd love to do it differently, but mine seems to be harder than yours. I can not lightly just help gravity.

I'll have to go out and test when my shocks start to grab and pull up.
