Now, that same push gets the seat closing as usual, but the lid stops. I
have to manually close the lid to about 45* before it will move on it's

I have the same problem. I'll just keep pushing until something
breaks. Never timed it. In the beginning I wondered how long it would
be before it got weak
and slammed like a normal seat. I would guess I'm into it about 5 or 6
years.
My chrome is starting to blister.
