Rodders 16 Posted January 5, 2019 Why does my XF tailgate close too far? I can’t seem to find the adjustment in it. Am I missing a seal that should push it back a bit? Is there an adjustment anywhere?Aggghhhhh! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2redrovers 21,390 Posted January 5, 2019 That adjustment is in the strikers at the top where the latches click in. Should have adjustment to loosen and move outwards. Take a photo with it open and I'll point to what I mean if you didn't follow that. 1 Rodders reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2redrovers 21,390 Posted January 5, 2019 Yep they're a pain to move sometimes but should all have adjustment like door hinges 1 Rodders reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2redrovers 21,390 Posted January 5, 2019 If I remember right, you can pull the tail lights and soak the back of the strikers in WD40 etc 1 Rodders reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deankxf 20,266 Posted January 5, 2019 that's how it will be with that seal missing from My experience. you can see the clips along the edge in this pic i had the same issue when i fitted a New aftermarket one that didn't have the seals.. i left it like that, because i didn't get around to fitting the seals i threw out with the old tail gate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
