Tailgate adjustment

  1. Hi everyone
    Can anyone tell me how i can adjust the tailgate. It closes ok but the Top LH side stands proud and lets water in :-( I have tried to adjust it at the hinge but it still stands proud. The RH side is flush.
    Any wise words would be much appreciated.
     
  2. Loosen the four mounting bolts at the top? You can adjust the bottom striker plate as well.

  3. Very detailed ;)

    You need to loosen the top countersunk bolt on the side of the rear hatch... do this with the hatch open, and then while pushing up the bottom of the hatch, nip up the CSK bolt... this will pull in the top corner of the hatch

    :thumbsup:
