I Have a 2010 Bentley Continental GT Supersports, which has developed a small issue!! At random times normally when just reversing off the drive or pulling away the boot decides to open itself? And just recently out of the blue it opened whilst it was just parked... It does not do it when the car is locked or when under way (over 20 mph) Bentley say they not sure what is causing the issue, they suggested changing the hinges, then the motor, latches and switches. none of this has helped. Can anyone help.

Does the key have a boot release button? Try change key battery or use spare key as dodgy batteries can sometimes cause weird issues like this

Simple things first
When you start the car where do you keep your key? Pocket? Ensure it is not being pressed in pocket.
Failing that
It sounds like a wiring issue to me possibly rubbing somewhere. However, to rule out door boot open switch I would lift up switch pack at rear edge and disconnect connector and try to test over a couple of days to see if fault returned

Hope this helps
