mine is an '11. The flaps still close so I'm not messing with them yet. I know it's coming though. They get slower each time I use the top so my fingers are crossed. I only use the top a few times per year though... pretty much sits in the garage top down 99% of the time.
Yep that's the first sign, the flaps move slower and slower over time. I would advise to have your car at a complete standstill until the flaps are fully in.
good to know, thanks!
