How to correct dropped tailgate problem on Range Rover L405

[@stephenbailey9656]

Just got my first RR. These videos are priceless, not just so can do the work yourself but also arming yourself with knowledge to prevent being charged for unnecessary or wrong work.

Welcome to our club !

[@macmad6959]

Another fantastic video, very well explained and executed, it’s like having a Haynes manual on KZbin. 👍

[@L663]

Thanks 👍

[@dcap63]

For starters, thank you again for taking the time to create these videos. When I close my tailgate, I get the warning that it is open and I can’t lock the truck. Instead I get the two faint horn beeps. I will try adjusting mine, but if that’s not the case, I’d there a way of “fooling” the truck into thinking it’s closed (even though it already is) Maybe jump a sensor wire or something similar? Thank you!

[@Misstisha25]

Did you figure this out? For the life of me I am tired of not being able to lock my doors.

[@markymark1940]

How did you get this resolved im having the exact same issue frustrating as hell

[@leoandrade5552]

Well Im a level 3 and level 4 certified JLR panel beater, yes your video is good cause it can help someone who have no idea yet to do so. I suggest also to you to make video on how to remove evoque rear trunk lid.

[@stevejenkins8298]

This is great, I've got the same problem on my Discovery 5. I'll give it a go, thanks guys much appreciated!

[@robertoneill8666]

Have you managed to realign your tailgate and if so was it easy to do.

[@jameswoodhams9445]

Keep the vids coming please it helps ME Thanxs 👍😀😀

Great video thanks, any advice on dysfunctional deployable side steps? (2017 Range Rover Vogue)

[@L663]

Not played with these much ! I guess they take the signal from the CANbus First step - disconnect battery and the reconnect !

[@robertoneill8666]

Hi Guys, Great video and applicable to so many L405's, is this the same set up for an L494? I am going to attempt the alignment on my RR Sport 2018 myself as my dealer has said it is an expensive operation requiring parts. I will video my attempt and if successful will confront my Dealer.

[@luxmoggy8541]

Do think that a stepped bar would help? Eg. the top bit that fit in the smaller hole and then the next part fitting the larger hole...

[@joec.8775]

I've got a Range Rover Sport 2016 and up to now its been great. Just noticed that when it rains water somehow gets in the tailgate, not into the boot but in between the inner and outer skin of the tailgate. So when i open the tailgate water pours out of the lock mechanism. Have you come across this before if so what was the problem? Thanks in advanced for any information.

[@paddyschannel217]

Great videos fellas 👍🏻

How to correct the tailgate from RR Evoque 2011?, I moved it up as much as in your video, but it is still below the car line about 4-5mm.

[@barryhalley9021]

Hi I have followed your strut change video.but on replacing my struts now it won’t lift automatically any ideas why?

[@howardchung4728]

Hi sir, can you do a video regarding to the lower tail gate, it always can't close properly and top can't close as well

[@georgemircea7595]

Yes, can you, please, my lower tailgate has gone down almost 1 cm when open, the trunk lip isn't touching it anymore, thanks!

[@deepakmasson1124]

Excellent videos. I will be re-aligning mine soon, but I have a different issue to deal with first. I have been getting low battery warnings and my tailgate won't open. It unlocks lifts a fraction then locks again. I can force it up, but it feels like it is trying to close against me (unless it is merely the weight of the tailgate). I have put a charger on the battery to see if that fixes the issue. Any ideas?

[@jamesonjkim]

I am running into the same issue. Have you resolved this yet?

[@austinsmith3006]

@@jamesonjkimusually when the low battery light is on and tailgate won’t open electronically it’s normally a indicator that the battery is on its way out

[@dkeshvala]

My has similar drop in the boot. I have full RR extended warranty, would the boot lid adjustment be covered under warranty? As the car is going for some warranty work soon.

[@simonc5313]

Is the L462 Discovery 5 the same process? Its a known issue with them. The D5 is a bit neglected on your website and KZbin videos 😔

[@robertoneill8666]

Does this Clip apply to the Sport L494

[@filipmuzinic2312]

Is this the sam way to adjusted a tailgate on a evoqe 2015?

[@winstrolchurchill821]

Brilliant video does anyone know my vogue se 405 doesn’t have frontfod lights in the front bumper ? Is this an extra will I need the electrics or can I just get the lights? Any info much appreciated

[@williamkratch6512]

I have a 2009 RR L320my and it’s totally different at the top we’re the hinge connects to tail gate. Do you have any recommendations on aligning that tailgate? Second question what is the part number for the electrical hosts. My 2009 did come with electrical hosts but one failed and I can’t find any replacement. no part numbers on either electrical hoists.

[@L663]

Hi William - the part number changed a few times but the latest PN is LR062078 ( engineering PN CH3270354AD ) They are £237 each retail from Land Rover.

Is it the same way to do the RRS l494 please?

[@Robbocop]

Hi guys. I've just bought a previously loved 2014Jag XF Sportbrake with the same tailgate alignment issue. Before I get busy with my socket set, would you think adjustment will be the same as with your RR?

[@L663]

Sorry i have not looked at the Jag closely

Gents, are you able to correct mine? It has been realigned but stopped making the second click when closing after realignment!

Why don't you fabricate a pin that can be inserted into the hole, i guess this is how they do it at JLR?
