If above does not work .........try getting somebody to lift the engine lid while you do the catch, mine was like that, if thats the answer then cure it by screwing the rubber bits it sits on anti-clockwise till it pops up on the lever, worked for me !

Got to say, I've done the other way round - pulled up to a petrol station and opened the engine lid.
