I had the same issue when I converted to 17" wheels and it turned out that my shock was toast. When I replaced them, the issue went away.

I went with the flowable silicone from Permatex option and it has held for a couple of years. I am resigned to the fact that I will have to replace the hatch at some point though.

I have had a ton of issues on my turbo with bad t-stats. Had one which would not open at all until 95C and it was supposed to be a 80C t-stat. Sounds like you found part of the issue.

I would offer my garage, but I do not do the belts myself. Just too much risk.
