bloody hell...... is this what it is???? had this 'whoummm' noise for the last two years now i.e. since I've installed a GT2 front bumper. Just had a quick look and that leading edge is indeed about 2-3 mm higher than the bumper edge.

Can't believe this. top quality thanks for this note (lovely forum huh!)

Your 2 black stops probably need adjusting.
What also wouldn't hurt is to give the latch a puff of dry lubricant (PFTE, i.e. teflon spray), makes less of a mess than oil.
