    Unfamiliar Dashboard Warning

    I love my 2018 D5, one of the best cars I’ve owned.

    Today I had an odd image on the central part of the dash console, and I’m stumped by it.

    I had snow/gravel program on, ambient air temperature around 0c, and this showed when I returned to the car having been parked for hours or so.

    Any thoughts most welcome!

    Tailgate? That’s very odd, as I hadn’t touched it!

    Normally if somethings open, eg a door, you get a text warning come up?

    As I say the car had been locked, I got in drivers side and that was it.

    I wonder if I have an Elf hiding in there?

    Text warnings? That's so last year.

    I guess it could be a sensor or switch playing up. Or tailgate not aligned properly - it would scrape the trim and you'd see scuff marks. The latter was the case on mine, but it never triggered false tailgate not closed alarms.
