    Can anyone help as the top on my 430 will not close , the windows lower then the rear hatch opens and both flaps go down but nothing more , pump does continue to run . has been intermittent but now top is down and can not get it to close. Fluid level is correct.

    Is it HOT?....mine does that sometimes if it over 95 degrees and I've been running the car and then stop,....engine compartment get to hot for the pump to work right I guess...It says something about that in the owners manual...after it cools a bit, it works fine...and works fine if temps are below 90 degrees outside.

    Does appear to have been too hot as works fine again in morning , air temperature was 29c so surprised if fluid above 90f guess heat must have built up in engine compartment. Not often we get high temperatures in UK had the car 7 years this is the first year I have had this problem . Global warming !?
