Hello chaps, bit of a problem with my tailgate lock. It will not open consistently. Unlock central locking all good press key button in but no mechanical movement.

See the highlighted bit in the photo. For some reason it has come out of place. It's meant to be behind that white round bit of the lock. Easy and cheap fix

i've glued a small nail (cut to fit) in to the top of mine for the time being, the head of the nail is just enough to stop it slipping past ! |
