I have a ‘07 Scion tC, and when it was new the hatchback lifted very easily when I opened it. Now it only opens about halfway before I have to push it up manually. I guess the mechanism that does the lifting needs cleaning or lubricating or re-pressurizing, but I‘m not sure if it‘s something I can do myself or if I‘d have to take it to a mechanic. How can I get it to lift like it did when it was new?
