Estate tailgate question
 
Hi,
The tailgate on my estate is beginning to not hold very well in the open position. Is there any way of improving this again? Are they gas struts?

Thanks Toby

There are gas struts, chances are at least one of them will need to be replaced. One good strut can not hold the tailgate open on its own.

While you are in there, replace both of them. The rear of the head liner needs to be lowered to get to the struts.
