435i Trunk spring issue?

Hi guys, bought a used 435i and just realized the trunk isn't opening all the way...it pops up half way and just bounces at the top, not enough strength to keep it up , but if i hold it open in the very top position it sometimes does stay up...is this something to do with the springs?

I tried adjusting my springs but i'm afraid to pull it out of position 2 and the spring will collapse and i won't be able to get it back...would make it easier if i remove the lining but i'm having trouble doing that...
This is the maximum it will stay up on it's own.

Also here is a video with the sound when manually moving it back up


If i quickly move it up and let go it will wobble back and forth into that same position while making some springy noises from the left side

Can anyone help? Thanks much.
