Electric tailgate.

[mon]

I have a mgs5. I have an electric tailgate and the manual says I can also open it with a button on the tailgate. I can’t find it!!! Anyone else found it?

I think it has a button just under the rear MG badge, just press it to open the tailgate.

EDIT Found a video showing where the tailgate button is.

The manual has a diagram showing where it is:

It's tricky until you know where it is, there is a depression in the surround just to the right of centre, and a vertical upwards button press opens the tailgate.

And don't forget the foot wiggle on the Trophy. I use that.

They are great, as long as they work first time. Otherwise you look a bit odd, stood at the back of the car, wiggling ya foot.

Mine seems to work.
