    Boot Opening

    Does anyone know if its possible to programme the boot to open both parts on the button? Getting tired of having to press the button on the inside to drop the small shelf!

    Only one press of the button opens both, either a fault or something in the settings 👍

    Off the key both open, if opening from inside the car and the button on the boot its only the boot that opens Confused

    Both seem to open when I sweep the leg under the butt as well.

    ’’that’s apparently to stop the chance of something rolling out...as you are still in the drivers seat. Never quite understood why that also happened when pressing the V button, as like when using the fob, or kicking the foot ...you are stood there to stop things rolling out.

    Mine opens both no matter what button I use.

    I think the trick is to close it without lifting up the bottom flap first. that way the next time you open it they both open.

    Hope that makes sense.

    I never close the bottom flap, just press the button on the boot itself to close the whole thing, must be a software change to do it surely

    this would be a great software update to allow you to configure what buttons do with the flap.

    I'm pretty sure mine opens in whatever state it was when last closed, so, if I closed it with the flap down, it closes the flap up on shutting the boot. When I open it next it opens the flap also.

    If I have closed the flap separately myself before shutting the boot, when I next open the boot the flap stays up.

    Certainly not the case with mine, the only time both will open is off the key fob!

    on mine...key fob and gesture kick. if using button under the V or the facia button then the inner tailgate remains upright and has to be lowered with the button in the load area.

    I haven’t even tried to work that one out. If it doesn’t come down, I use the boot switch. Life’s too short to worry about such things.
