Is that the problem? I had a '97 900 convertible in which the tonneau cover wouldn't close. The problem was that the that first bow is pulled into the compartment via wide and stout elastic bands. In time, these bands had worn out and also torn away from the 5th bow (I think, can't adequately remember now). The top wouldn't completely pull into the compartment and the tonneau cover could not apply sufficient force to push it down into place. I'm now having similar issues on a 2008 9-3 convertible top. I haven't really tried to undo the liner to see if that it the same thing is happening.
It's pretty easy to tell. Have someone do the top. When the tonneau cover is closing push it down to see how much resistance there is.
