help and advice needed - auto tailgate
Hi Folks,
Just a quick question. My BMW dealer has advised me, that auto tailgate, only works when outside the vehicle, and pressing the switch both raises and lowers the tailgate. My question is this - Is there any way (even if it is a mod) that I can raise and lower the tailgate from WITHIN the car....do I have to add another button switch My mate has autotailgate on his Merc ML....and you dont even need to get out of the car..... has this been done, could it be done. All help is appreciated. Thank You |

I just tried this and it works from the inside button just fine, the car was even running. You do have to close it with the red button on the tailgate. I'd worry about your dealer!

Unless you can find some afterrmarket mod or know an electrical engineer, good luck on getting it to close any other way than specified. Oh, and by the way...
