Hola a todos/as,
today I have been checking some of the comments you all wrote yesterday:
1. I have tried to open the verdeck changing the position of the trunk lock, but I got no success
(the verdeck was folded, the "verdeckkaster" went up a little bit but then did not lift at all, the motor kept on sounding. It closed very well.
2. I removed the cover of the trunk. I opened the top of the pump. I saw the screw to fill in with hydraulic oil and filled in the oil tank. I made a mistake
because I put too much oil and now is a bit more than the maximun line. These are both the pictures of the pump and the oil tank level:

After filling in with the oil, I drove the car a couple of kms and tried to open the "verdeckkasten". No success. I did it by hand and then tried again with the motor but... nothing.
3. I checked for the wires in the trunk (only visually, checking the black cable around the trunk), both right and left ones. I saw where they ended and check for the switches (right and left sides), no wire out of its place. I supposse that I will have to change both wires for new ones. I imagine that even if the black cover of the wires is not broken, they could be broken inside, no??? At first sight it seems to be impossible that the wires might be broken inside, but of course they can be.
I have a question at this point
: Should I change all the wires (I mean in lenght) or cut them at a point and join? Where should I cut by your experience? I am going to try to get some similar cables at a car store tomorrow afternoon, or is it better to directly go to Audi?
I also found a couple of white wires with transparent and red ending disconnected in the left side of the trunk. I looked around to find the connectors in which they were supposed to be in, but I saw nothing. Do you know anything about them? Here is a picture of them:

Here you are other picture of the right side and the wires ending:

Well, I hope everything is ok very soon. I only can thank you all for the help you are giving me.
Saludos para todos/as desde la playa (hoy mucho viento y nubes) y hasta mañana.
