Good afternoon
I've been looking through all the Posts, but none seem to answer the problem I have, yet I'm told the following problem is common with Freelander and that there's a 'reset' process that sorts this problem out?
My 2005 Freelander TD4 Facelift (3-door) has a locking tailgate problem where, once you open the door you have to operate the door handle in and out whilst the door's still open several times until you hear the locking mechanism work and then you can close the door. If you don't wait for that noise the door doesn't shut (although the glass still goes up!).
The vehicle's CDL system all works fine, the tailgate door glass works ok too, and when the tailgate door is locked it doesn't pop open at will (like some Freelander owner's have experienced).
Any suggestions?
