  • passat auto tailgate issue

    Hi all

    I just bought a 2008 passat wagon and one of the bolts holding tbe tailgate motor to the hinge had broken off

    I've removed the the hinge and taken the broken bolt out now I can't seem to line up the motor arms with the hinges

    The motors are splined in such a way that they only go on one way and when I have them on tbey are in the closed position when the gate is open and no matter which combination of buton presses I use they don't seem to rotate to the open position so I can install the bolts

    Is there a special setting or installation procedure as this is really doing my head in

    I have fixed it by resetting and then repeatedly pressing remote button and motors returned to proper position. happy days

      Oh and removing the lager goggles helped immensely
