The right side has the motor that opens & closes the boot, these hinges get worn out and has play in the hinge, check the hinge when it closes or when the boot is open lift it slightly see if there is play in that hinge. Or it may just need adjustment which can be done from inside the boot on the right side above the battery where the motor is located ...

Ok so there is Play on the hinge but don’t Seem to me that this is the Problem. The left Side also has Play ist closes Perfect. I will Look from inside the Boot of there is something to adjust. What i have to search for? A Screw on the Motor ? Or what is it exactly

I had exactly the same problem. I ended up taking mine to my indie Bentley guy here in socal and he fixed the problem for $65.00 . I thought it costs more than $65.00 to open the door of the car!
