Hi folks,

I'm having a recurring issue with the electric boot on my new MG S6:

The tailgate lowers, but the soft-close mechanism won't pull it fully shut or lock, leaving an "open" warning on the dash.

On the next opening cycle, it only opens to ~80% height.

I have to manually push the boot right at the bottom of its travel to get it to lock. I’ve tried resetting the top height limit and clearing the latch area, but no luck.

Has anyone had their dealer fix this? Is it a quick software update for the tailgate module, or a physical latch alignment?

Thanks for any replies.
