What to do if the tailgate of the Volkswagen Golf 6 Variant does not open?
Years 2008-2012

Answer

If the boot of the Golf VI Variant does not open with the remote control, you must operate from inside the tailgate. In fact, from the inside, hidden in the upholstery, there is a manual opening command. You will have to unstick the wallpaper a bit and look for it but you will certainly find it and open it.
